Here is a comparison video of Nikon D800 vs Nikon D600. You'll find sample pictures of high ISO, colors and dynamic range as well as low light focus test. Please watch the entire video if you're uncertain about which camera to get. If you're still confused then you can find me on my facebook page for further help.
Equipment used
DSLR Nikon D600 Nikon D800
Lenses Tamron 24-70 f/2.8 VC and Nikon 50mm f1.8G lens
the D800 always struck me as a studio/wedding/landscape camera. The D600 D700 D4 etc are your bread and butter cameras for a bunch of purposes.
To get the best results with the D800 you definitely need to use top glass for best results.
Out of all the tutorials I watched yes they were helpful but yours helped me the most. I mean your aperture video with the aperture chart was awesome. It was so clear I got it right away. Thank you!
Its very strange the D600 pulls out a better pic to the eye than a D800. What was the D-lighting on? (auto?) or off? Was any of the settings on custom, vivid or standard on both cameras? Lets do this test again with the d7100 vs D600 when it arrives mid month. P.S. You need to match your volume levels in your video, its hard to hear in some parts, I turn the volume up and then it transition to the next scene and it is super loud. Thanks. Keep up the videos.
I love your work and respect you for giving us 'KNOWLEDGE" for free. Again, thank you from my heart.
Just wondering if you took the pictures on the D600 with Active D lighting while the D800 since you just got it from the store no tweaking had been done probably made the D600 with more contrast.
just use your audio meters on the lcd - keep them consistently about -12db (by manually adding or subtracting audio gain) while recording. Keep your mic placement similar during your setups... Clean up in post...
to each camera. That is what I mean by profile. Again I still say there is more detail in the arches above the front doors of the chapel. It is clearly visibile the D800 extracts more detail because of better sensor latitutde, imo. B profile I'm referring to what you would create with an iPro 2 by xrite for instance.
I remember at my father's wedding in 2001 the photographer had a few SLRs and a medium format. I think that the D800 would be nice for your group shots. I do agree it is a bit much for everything else, but a nice sub for when in the film days you had to carry two sets of cameras. Now you could use something with a bit smaller images like a D3 or D700 and use a D800 for the sub as a medium format without the need of the extra lenses. Just a thought.
I do not count any low light focus test when using a speed light or AF assist lamp.
I'd like to test against a low contrast target without the above aids. That will give you real low light focus test results. Have you done a test like this yet?
D600=Entry level fx camera, and D800=serious enthusiast/professional photographer. from my perspective, most professional will use a D4 or D800-800E as main camera and D600 as sub camera (2nd). no offense 39AF points vs 51AF also the flash sync speed d800 better for me as doing commercial work.
Please compare the way you change things on this two different cameras, Iso, metering ,af type and other things which are important to change instantly in some situation;setting which on lower end bodies one has to go into the menu. Keep the videos coming.
You mentioned D600 as your backup. What is your primary camera then?
I just saw this video, Great job! I got a new D600, and my plan is to star doing wedding etc.. And save money to get the D4.
I'm retired from my old Pro Photography and Firefighting careers :-) I learned on the old film cameras like the Nikon F2AS and the Hasellblad C-500 film. When me and my Wife had a chance too meet Dr. Charles Stanley world known Baptist preacher and he also shots outdoor stuff. I found out he uses Hasellblad Medium format digital cameras. Talk about no noise, LOL. Now I know why they run 30K per camera. I don't need 36 MP but if I am going to spend 2K on a camera, NO spots for me :-)
congrautlations on making such a concentrated effort to compare the cameras. I'm not seeing the same thing you are though. without knowing what optics you're using and AF fine tune, etc.. the D800 has clearly better latitude, shadow detail and resolution. ex. see arches above door in church. Differences in color could simply be a variance in camera profile as well. I wouldn't say D600 is better in any aspect at all. Cheers. DxO ranks D600 behind D800 as well. Cheers.
Hi Jibran, I am a big fan of your tutorials and have learnt a lot really. I own a Nikon D7000 with two lenses: 18-105 and 50mm f/1.4 g lens. As I do more research, there are so many lenses available that it just gets confusing. Like what's the main differences between 80mm versus 50mm. Which one suits which occasion, etc. can you do a tutorial on different lenses and suggestions on which lenses suit various situations please?
Very good test, the only good autotfocus comparison between the 2 cameras.
I just wanted to say thank so sooo much for these videos. I am barely starting photography as a teenager its hard for people to take you seriously sometimes but I love photography. As an amateur I was wondering I wanted to start taking some portrait shots for friends a family couple extra bucks in my pocket. I have a t4i with a 18-135mm STMr lens, would that be a good camera for portrait shots?
Again thanks for all the videos keep up the great work :D
I like the video, but I think that the microphone should be on a boom. The audio fluctuates as the cuts vary. Nonetheless, great info.
Thank you for a good video as always :) Im a concert photographer..used D700 up to now..need to replace them soon..I cant afford D4, so im looking at both D800E and D600. Not shure what i do yet..Im hoping to find a used D3s, but no luck so far..So im checking out these two models too. Keep up the good work!
@PhotographersOnUTube i have to say that was a good video. i am in two minds as to which to get. the 800 or 600.
Very helpful and informative ( as usual) thank you very much
Thank you for the answer! Last month there i have seen only 1 used D3s on the marked here in Norway, but i didnt get it. Thats why i was looking at these two. I know the files are huge on the D800, that's the only reason i havent bought it yet. Will rule out D600 now..and keep searching for D3s some more :)
both lovely cameras
Would it be possible to do a video where you show how you set up your D600? I think you did a video like this for the d3200.
Hi there:
Do you have any review about the Nikon D600 performance (by itself, not comparing it with another model)) and what about the "dust sensor" problem? (I've been informed it's on the upper left corner of the sensor).
I've read some articles saying it's not a big deal and others saying it's a big issue on a full-frame camera which should be at a higher standart?
Thanks for the possible info you can give and for all the rest of reviews and information, great job!
Great video, thanks. I gave it a thumbs up. One thing, I had to crank the volume up to hear you. Something wrong with you microphone perhaps.
offcourse slightly different beacuse u use different lengt of focal lenght. some lense have nice n sharp in some focal leght. n u should give us sure thats u use one lense or different lense
I don't really like the lighting on you and that your hands are out of focus, I feel as if you focused on the chair before sitting down as the chair seems to be sharper than you,
other than that, I feel your video was really relevant to answering the questions I had in my mind, I'm more into concert photography, is there any other camera that is sufficient for that ? I am currently using a D5100 as I didn't find it important to upgrade till now.
I take that back. The sound issue may be on my side. Apologies.
do you normally just shoot in AV mode for typical street photography while on vacation as opposed to weddings where you are shooting normally in manual mode.
i play with the d600 whenever i go to retailers in central tokyo. initially i was not fond of the positioning of the focus points. however, i am getting used to it. i use a d7000 for street photography and portraits. what say you about the ability of the 600 for street and candid photography?
Thank you very much for very useful information!!
What would be a good option if d7000 is not acceptable for low light weddings?
I have $5000 to spend. I am buying a nikkon 24-70 2.8 FOR SURE. I shoot mostly family/newborns, and maybe 10 smaller weddings a year, Do I buy a d800 or a d600?
would you say that 30x lense is sutable for taking pictures of distant wildlife
and can you do a video on wich batteries to use aa or lithium ion
The d7000 is it a professional camera?Does it have the same problem focusing As D 600 when off camera flash is used?
good detail explanation
heard that D600 has alot internal dust...is that right?
Thank You So Much!
give me your videos links for the Cannon 550 which i bought yesterday and i suggest me which lens i buy i think u are professional there at RUclips
d600 has less noise the same dynamicrange better collors than my d800 even 5dmk3 is better than the aging d800 speaking of speed d800 is like an turtel vs porsh than why did i by it ,everybody was telling my by the d800 36mg pixel ye it has 36pixel but that has one cost and that is noise
awesome ! Thank you !
are the picture style and wb same?
A wedding photographer can not use a d800? Really?
what lens that you use to take a photo inside the church ?
could you shorten it up :P in your oppinion whom is the d600 suited for and whom is the d800 suited for? :D fast question fast answer! :O
if d600 & d800 not fit for wedding, what camera do you prefer ? dont tell me its d3s lol :-)
totally off topic. But, you have to do something with your audio on these videos. It goes from being very low to very loud, waking the house up at the wee hours of the night ;)
Great video, Jibran, thanks. Now I'm leaning to the D600. The extra detail in the D800 isn't worth the added expense and larger file sizes for me.
very informative
PS where do you get those covers for the screen?
I simply don't agree that DxO is a joke. It's nothing more than scientific comparison of sensor performance which will change in real world settings. no guarantee your samples will match. AF tune because some of your captures are out of focus which obscures details, esp in shadows. I only mentioned possible profile issues because of variance in color balance between the cameras. Every sensor has a different range which is why we calibrate our monitors to create a color profile specific to each
What about the d7000,
So I can rent lenses on that website?
d4 is great for weddings
Well that's annoying, mine didn't come with one :(
HI,thanks for all the videos...it's really helpful and I appreciate your hard work :)
But erm...I hope that you can teach us how to shoot nice LENS FLARE photo in your video soon.Since I'm a fan of yours,I would be happy if you are reading this. Thanks again. ^.
17:10 "unless you have a huge network of pregnant moms.." ;D LOL,
anyway great review, thanks ! :)
Hey dude I have been using my D700 since it came out love te camera, but I've been thinking of making the leap to D600 for the Full Frame sensor and just finally eave the DX world. Is it a good idea? Is the difference that much to warrant gettin the D600? If I get the D600 I will only have a 50mm 1.8G and an 85mm 1.8G to shoot with (I only do senior portraits)
should I go for it?
D7100 51 AF Points. DX. Lol... Nice one Nikon!
Haha love the shirt.
Why are you at my grandma's?
hahaha xD only problem with the d610 is that it is only an 330$ price difference here in sweden on that one and the d800 :< while there's a 670$ difference on d600 and d610, and it feels like there's n't enough of an upgrade on the d610 that it would be worth 670$ more than the d600 (more than the oil problem some people seem to have) :P i am scared of picking wrong here XD
