Nikon D780 Review

The Nikon D780 is a fabulous all-around stills and video camera for folks who prefer the DSLR-format. It's well-built, comfortable to shoot with and highly customizable. Autofocus performance is, for the most part, excellent. But inconsistencies between live view autofocus and through the finder autofocus may cause some confusion. Still, battery life is great and a dedicated smartphone app offers good connectivity.
Pros:
  • Stills and video shooters looking for a DSLR-style camera that can do it all.
Cons:
  • Anyone requiring in-body image stabilization or folks seeking a small/light package

Nikon D780 review

We hear a lot of talk about the death of the DSLR, and the unstoppable rise of mirrorless. But DSLRs remain the best choice for many photographers, particularly those who have existing lenses or honed their craft with optical viewfinders – and the D780 is one of the best full-frame options around. It combines great image quality, a weather-proof build, superb battery life and modern autofocus skills. It's a shame there's no in-body image stabilization and it's currently pretty pricey, but the D780 is otherwise a superb all-round DSLR.
Pros:
  • Plenty of direct access controls
  • Tilting touch-sensitive screen
  • Dual card slots
  • Fast live-view focusing
  • Great battery life
Cons:
  • Big and heavy
  • Expensive
