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
While there's nothing major to complain about
The D800's battery life could use a boost
Sharpening introduces artifacts quickly
Some underexposure
Poor AWB indoors
Increased softness at ISO 3200
Strong antialias filter
EC button placement not ideal

Highly inconsistent Liveview

Expensive and heavy
Noisy at higher ISOs
Definitely for serious shutterbugs
Relatively slow 4 fps continuous shooting in FX mode (6 fps with optional battery grip in DX mode)
Slow AF in live view and video modes (compared to phase-detection)
Rear LCD prone to glare in bright sunlight
Despite new design
Fine detail in live view magnifications can be prone to artifacts
When shooting in live view
Screen is blacked out until data is written to the card
New 'simplifi
Excrutiatingly slow buffer flush times even with fastest cards
Modest continuous shooting speed and burst depth
No built-in Wifi or GPS. Both are expensive accessories
Movies and magnified Live View can suffer from moire
Amazing detail and resolution from the 36megapixel sensor; camera body feels like it is built tough as a tank; stereo output for audio monitoring during video recording,
Top continuous shooting speed is only 4fps (or 5fps in DX crop mode); priced at a premium.
This is for serious photographers or professional use. So, to be able to take advantage of the image quality that is possible with the D800, you need to pair it with equally spectacular lenses....

Abstract: 今年的全片幅 DSLR 可說是百家爭鳴，令人期待的新產品線陸續登場，而中階的全片幅 DSLR 新機價格帶，也逐漸落至新台幣6萬元之譜，較05年 Canon EOS 5D 甫推出時便宜許多，相信會吸引不少人換機升級。我們這次特別整理了各廠牌的主力全幅機規格表，供玩家們參考。快速目錄：全片幅DSLR最大魅力，在於那36x24mm大小的感光元件，與一格135底片相同大小，所以拍攝出來的視角與底片幾乎相同，所有類型鏡頭實體焦長都不需經過換算，50mm就是標準視角、16mm就是超廣視野，因此全片幅DSLR能讓鏡頭還...
