Released in September 2014, the Nikon D750 camera features a Full-frame CMOS sensor with a 24.3 megapixel resolution combined with the EXPEED 4 processing engine, an ISO sensitivity range from 100 to 51,200, a 51-point Multi-CAM 3500 FX II autofocus, a maximum burst rate of 6.5 fps, a 3.2″ tilting LCD screen, a maximum resolution of 1080p at 60 fps in video mode, and a built-in Wi-Fi connection, microphone and headphone ports.

So what do the critics think of the Nikon D750?
Overall, most review praise the superb image quality of the Nikon D750. Noise is hardly visible up to 6400 ISO. Plus, the white balance system and the EXPEED processor both contribute to produce sharp and natural images (especially outdoor/landscapes shots). Here, the D750 surpasses the D600 and D610 cameras. The 6.5 fps shooting speed will be enough in most situations even though sports and wildlife shooters might prefer a faster frame rate, with the Nikon D4S for instance.
The advanced AF system is extremely fast and accurate. Plus, it can be customized in order to adapt to the photographer or the subject.
Video enthusiasts will appreciate the wide possibility of customization. The Movie Shooting Menu allows you to control parameters such as the movie quality, white balance, card destination, ISO, etc.

Websites Reviews
Cameralabs.com – ★★★★★ (Highly Recommended)
Dpreview.com – 90% (Gold Award) – ‘The D750 is an exceptional full-frame DSLR that deserves to appeal to enthusiasts and many professionals alike. It offers excellent image quality, an advanced autofocus system, fast continuous shooting, and a host of video features. The only real downsides are limited buffer capacity, slow live view AF, and poor camera control from a smartphone.’
Digitalcameraworld.com – ★★★★★ – ‘Although we have a few niggles with the Nikon D750 compared to more recent DSLR and mirrorless rivals, it is an excellent camera. It has a professional-level AF system, and is capable of producing superb images even in tricky conditions. Even in the context of the newly announced D780 remains a capable – and cheaper – full-frame DSLR for enthusiasts. Its lower price is more reflective of its age than its abilities, and means it is curiously more appealing today than it was maybe a couple of years ago.’
Ephotozine.com – ★★★★½ (Highly Recommended) – ‘The Nikon D750 delivers excellent image quality with low noise, and a number of customisation options to deliver images to your own personal tastes.’

Techradar.com – ★★★★½ – ‘On the face of it, the D750 seems to offer the same sensor as the D610. In fact, its a redesigned sensor with better image quality and a higher ISO range. The D750 also offers better video features, in-built Wi-Fi and a tilting screen. It’s not cheap, but you get your money’s worth.’
