Nikon D600

Using Nikon since 1983 and always using Nikon! Have waited for a right weight full frame machine for a while. Now Nikon's D600 provides what I need in my photography but in the right weight. All of the features are marvelous in such small and light weight body. It is a nice camera for daily use.

My D600 is a quick easy to use for any occasion, or you can take your time and fine tune the many useful features the camera offers. Goes with my set of FX lenses and now operates with RAW 7.3 giving more control over quality images.
Overall a sharp camera, great build quality and I'm glad I purchased the camera in Australia. These cameras will hold their value for quite a while.

The D600 is my first full frame camera and it is taking a while to extend my skills to the capabilities of the camera. Love many of its features, such as: dual card slots (already saved me once when the first card was left in my computer), mode dial lock to prevent accidental wrong settings, time lapse. It is only a little bigger and heavier than my D90 so goes most places with me.

A quality full-frame camera. Handles very well with good lenses (24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8) - better balanced than my old D90. Would like to have more focus points but not a major limitation. Bulk is easy to handle with the BlackRapid RS-Sport strap but you need to constantly check the hook gate to ensure it is secure.

Had mine for 6 weeks now and am so happy with it.It is very easy to use and produces great,sharp shots.I think its the best value camera on the market!

I've had the d600 for about a month now, and whilst I haven't used it in anger overseas yet, I have nothing to complain about, it's superb in low light & overall works brilliantly.

being my first true DSLR i still sometimes grab the sony NEX or X100 on my way out instead of lugging a huge back of gear around, but if I want to do the job properly, this camera is the business.

Overall an excellent camera that competes with the pro lines on everything except frame rate, however please be aware of an internal sensor issue where dust and blade oil is being spattered on the sensor. It is a real problem known with the d600. Supposedly doesnt stop till around 10000 shutter activations. This was frustrating as a camera at this price shouldn't be virtually unusable after 60 shots requiring an expensive sensor clean. Approx 90aud each time.

I still need to try my camera on other scenes etc.
Extremely happy so far.

I had the D600 for a month or more now, and it is one of the best I have used. Nikon is more of a manual type than Canon, because of the buttons that you will need to adjust the settings of the camera. However, if you get used to it, there isn't any problem at all. I think the lens is one of the more important one, having a good quality lens will provide better quality photograph. I am using the 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6 lens, which is pretty nice. The weight is more than 1KG, probably 2KG in total with lens and battery. For a long duration on the neck of hand, it will be pretty painful although this is the lightest and smaller DSLR Full Frame in the market, but comparing to the others, this camera should be able to get you to hold for another hour or so. The battery life is very good, I usually can use it for 2 days just for shooting photographs, however video will use up more of the battery. The body is quite solid, and it should last for 5 or more years. If you would like to see some samples, you can go to www.melbournephotograph.com or https://www.facebook.com/DCPhotograph

I've had a D600 for a month now and shot both professional and fun stuff on it.

Firstly, there IS a dust issue but if you know how to carefully clean the sensor you'll be fine.

The AF system is also a little centre dominant but like the rest of the camera, extremely fast.

On the plus side - the image quality is great - clean colours, great tonal range and way sharper than a D800 (nicer colour too). Nikon have removed a few of the preferences but the important stuff is still there. There's no sync socket, but hey - who uses them anyway?

Noise wise it's similar but maybe not quite as good as my D700. I also have a D3s which walks all over it but is soooo much heavier.

So if you want a compact, lightweight, full frame camera with 90% of those professional features you're looking for - this is your camera.

BTW I used a D800 and prefer the D600 as it is way better in terms of noise, sharpness and of course colour balance. Now, if Nikon could make a D600 in a D800 casing - that'd be great...

I just bought this baby 3 days ago and I gotta tell you this thing is a cracker! Valued only at $2,499, it is exceptional and oustanding for its level. It can produce stunning pictures in most conditions and is capable of capturing sharp and detailed images even at 6400 ISO! The build is good, although not as solid like the D4 or the D800. However, you trade all the excess weight for such a compact and versatile camera, so personally I think it's worth it. D600 might only be targeted at semi-professionals and serious enthusiasts, but I reckon it is the best gadget even for a world-class photographer. This machine possesses all the features you need, and most of all it can produce the best images! Definitely worth the money and a 5/5 for me.
