  • Fullframe sensor (24 x 36 mm), image quality, depth of field, etc, Large, comfortable 100% viewfinder, Advanced controls, loads of customisable features, Reassuringly sturdy build, Two SD card slots
  • Grip handle could be bigger given the camera's weight, Dense menus, complicated for novice users, Video mode can be tricky to use (manual focusing, external mic advisable)
  • It's rare to see a full-frame DSLR at this price (only Sony had done it previously, in fact). Image quality is clearly excellent, and the Nikon D600 is sure to be a must-have for users looking for this kind of camera. But like any advanced, expert-level S...

  • Although initially slightly disappointed in some of the D600s specification, this camera has really impressed me. The size and weight are spot-on, remaining bulky enough to be taken seriously, yet small and light enough to carry around. The handling and...

  • Excellent image quality, small and light for a full-frame camera, weather-sealed, most affordable full-frame DSLR to date
  • Limited AF point coverage (it's too centralised), don't like mode dial lock, limited movie controls compared to D800, don't think image quality is better than D800 (despite lower resolution), no live aperture control in movie mode
  • The D600 opens the full-frame door to many that would never otherwise be able to afford such a DSLR. It’s not exactly cheap, but it’s great value for money when considering both the build and image quality. The feature set is much like a D800 mashed up...

  • Excellent image quality, Competitively priced for a full-frame DSLR, Excellent handling
  • AF points too centralised
  • Given how the D600 is positioned between the D7000 and D800 it comes as no surprise to find that the design takes aspects from each model. In terms of physical size though, the D600 is much closer to the D7000 though – almost identical, in fact – but is n...

  • Compact and light, Outstanding sensor performance, User, friendly
  • Autofocus sensor positioning, No aperture adjustment in video mode, Pricey, Fixed LCD screen
  • The superb sensor, extensive yet accessible features and compactness make the Nikon D600 an exceptionally user-friendly full-frame. It's a pity the Nikon D600's larger sensor commands such a price premium over the Nikon D7000, but assuming it sees the ki...

  • Nikon's last big DSLR release was the D800. The big news with that camera was its pixel count of 36MP, which when it was released, comfortably eclipsed everything else around (and at the time of writing still does). The D600 doesn't quite reach those dizz...

  • Excellent image quality in a lightweight low-priced package with all the essentials,
  • If anything, we're just sad the D600 can't be a D800. We'd love more hardware buttons and more powerful autofocus, sure. It would be nice to have the video quality on par with what Canon offers these days. But considering the price, these drawbacks aren't
