Overview

Shooting full-frame stills through an optical viewfinder, then switching to ultra HD video in Live View, is what this Nikon DSLR body handles. The bundle adds a case, a memory card, a card reader and a cleaning kit, but no lens.

It pairs a classic viewfinder for stills with on-sensor phase detection across the frame in Live View, so video and screen shooting focus quickly with eye detection. It is a body only, so a Nikon lens is a separate purchase, and the extras are basic accessories.

Who it's for

Suited to enthusiasts and working photographers who already own Nikon lenses and shoot both portraits and video. Beginners without lenses must add one before taking a single picture.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Full-frame backside illuminated sensor
  • Wide ISO range for low light
  • Eye detection autofocus in Live View
  • Optical viewfinder for stills
Cons
  • Body only, no lens included
  • Moderate burst speed for action
  • Only one USB port listed
  • Heavy listed weight

Performance notes

Through the viewfinder, focus relies on the dedicated autofocus module, while Live View switches to on-sensor phase detection that covers the whole frame and adds eye tracking. The backside illuminated sensor and processor govern low-light noise, and burst speed sets how well it follows fast action.
