The editors didn't like

  • When a camera is fantastic—and expensive—the small shortcomings get frustrating. The D800's biggest disappointment is the auto-focus. It works
  • But not as fluidly as the rest of the camera. The high-resolution sensor was an awesome and potentially visiona
  • Slow burst shooting
  • Clunky user settings
  • Highresolution image files will force you to buy lots of new memory cards and external storage devices
  • Mediocre 4 fps burst rate
  • We experienced some autofocus issues with moving subjects in lowcontrast settings
  • Some skimping on details such as flimsy m
  • Slower to focus in Live View. Must initiate autofocus manually during video recording

  • Abstract:  In de professionele fotografie geldt al decennia lang hetzelfde principe: wie voor Nikon kiest, stapt niet snel meer over naar Canon, en vice versa . Gebruikers met een Canon weten de zwakke punten van de concurrent als geen ander op te lepelen, terwijl h...

  • Door Jeroen - 5 april 2012Voor we ingaan op de testresultaten zie je hieronder een vergelijkingstabel met de belangrijkste specificaties. De Canon 5D Mark III en Nikon D800 lijken qua specificaties het meest op elkaar een richten zich min of meer op dezel...

  • Het is niet moeilijk een winnaar aan te wijzen, het is Canon gelukt de 5D Mark III een stuk beter te laten presteren dan zijn voorganger en ook concurrent Nikon kan met de D800 niet bijblijven als het om filmen bij weinig licht gaat. Canon biedt meer keuz...

  • Beide camera's presteren prima bij hoge gevoeligheden, de Canon marginaal beter, de Nikon heeft een hogere resolutie. Dat laatste betaalt zich ook daadwerkelijk uit als je naar de detailweergave van de foto's gaat kijken, de D800 is hier duidelijk in het ...

  • Volgens DxO Labs heeft de Nikon D800 zo ongeveer de beste sensor ooit. Maar hoe ziet dat er uit in de praktijk, in plaats van in cijfertjes? En hoe zit het met de Canon 5D Mark III? De 22-megapixel fullframe-camera van Canon is op moment van schrijven nog...

  • Abstract:  Om de Nikon D800 en de D4 eerlijk te kunnen vergelijken, hebben we de foto's van de D800 verkleind naar de resolutie van de D4. Van 7360 pixels in de breedte naar 4928 pixels, een behoorlijk verschil dus. Voor de vergelijking hebben we de foto's uit beide...
