Buy Nikon D800. Shortly after the camera went on sale, Nikon’s UK subsidiary increased the price of the D800 in that market by ￡200 to ￡2599, saying that the original price was due to an “internal systems error”.
No matter how you look at it, the Nikon D800 is unquestionably one of the best DSLRs on the market, and in terms of sheer picture quality and resolution, it is now the one to beat. It has class-leading colour depth and dynamic range, the best AF and metering system you’ll find anywhere, and it produces amazingly detailed noise-free images even at moderately high ISO settings. It’s essentially a D4 with a higher resolution sensor, in a smaller and lighter body, and for about half the price, and is going to be a massive hit with landscape, portrait and studio photographers. Its continuous frame rate is a bit slower than the EOS 5D Mark III, but that’s not going to earn it any bad marks from me.
Detail / Sharpness
In full screen video, the Nikon D800 clearly has better overall sharpness and details. Update: Yes, we know sharpness depends partially on the lens used. We chose the most comparable lenses we had available.
Moire
Moire—the dreaded distortion that occurs when shooting detailed pattern—was vastly improved in the 5D Mark III, while the D800 really fails on this one. The moire visible in the brickwork in the D800’s image is very noticeable.
Rolling Shutter
Rolling shutter performance has improved from last generation on both cameras, but neither handles the issue especially well. If we’re picking by degrees of bad, the D800 wins out here.
For a look at the D800’s impressive real-world photo performance, check CNET’s D800 review and D800 sample image gallery. For the camera itself, be patient: Nikon says the D800 is in short supply, and one customer I know who was told he’d get his this week just learned that it’s now due in April.
The DxOMark score is based on how good an image looks when converted to an 8-megapixel size. A camera with more megapixels can use that resolution to overpower noise if a photo is viewed at a given size.
When zoomed in all the way (which is not how most people view a photo, to be clear, unless it’s cropped heavily), the story is different. Pixel-peepers who want to see the performance pixel by pixel can dig into the DxOMark scores by looking at “screen” option in the measurements section; the “print” option shows the results for the 8-megapixel conversion.
NikonUKcan confirm a correction to the originally published recommended retail prices (RRP) on the D800, D800E and D4 products.
Due to a local internal systems error, the incorrect RRPs on the D800, D800E and D4 products were communicated in theUKand Irish markets at the time of announcement. The correct RRPs for the products should have been D4: ￡5289.99, D800: ￡2,599.99 and D800E: ￡2,899.99. We would like to apologise sincerely to our customers for this unfortunate mistake, which has been corrected with immediate effect. We know that there has been strong consumer interest in these products and a high level of pre-orders placed with retailers; Nikon will be honouring the original prices to retailers on all customer pre-orders placed before March 24th 2012.
