I guess with the higher cost of living nowadays, rent, house repayments, bills and food all going through the roof, the Nikon D750 secondhand is a viable budget option for those not splashed with cash 📸
Purchased my D750 upon retiring in 2015 as a first DSLR camera, intent on reviving a 25 year idled photography hobby. This year, while shooting vistas in Montana, the shutter mechanism broke. I sent it to Nikon for repairs, expecting a $300+ repair bill. Nikon replaced the shutter and did a complete refurbish - and did it all at zero cost, for 'goodwill', they even covered the cost of shipping it back to me. Kudos to Nikon for a great product and great service.
Keith, That’s great to hear…I’m about ready to pull the trigger on a D750 (reviving a 15 year idled hobby) glad to hear Nikon stepped up to cover the cost…did you send it to them directly or go through a camera shop?
might not be "goodwill" cause the D750 was RECALLED for shutter problems at the very start, they probably saw your serial number was one that never came back before
I just bought one today out of a gut feeling because it was a a deal i could not resist and looking at these videos i am becoming more and more certain that i did the right thing. It will be my 4th Nikon and i am beginning to understand why my dad had several analog Nikons and always wanted another. Must be the genes...miss you, dad.
Image quality is excellent. The color isn’t like most cameras models. The colors are richly balanced and has this filmic feel rather than digital to its pictures. And it’s a joy working with these photos in Lightroom. Just got mine a couple days back and I’m not at all regretting it!
I am encouraging everyone to sell their DSLRs so i can double on my FX gear for the next 10 years and still go on holiday. This Z is a wet dream for me Speaking of film look D3 and D700 jpgs are even more amazing. And more cheap
You are exactly correct. It's not the gear that takes the photograph, It's the photographer. Love seeing video's about older model cameras. There is nothing wrong with a working camera body. Great Video Adrian.
I started my Nikon adventure with a D200. Later I made a step up to a D300s. In 2014 I read a review on a new Nikon release and put the D750 in my bucket list. Since then there have been a host of priorities that put a new camera on the someday list. Someday has come and my bucket list contains one less item. The D750 is a dream come true. Being a bit of DSLR dinosaur, I can't imagine ever wanting or needing more. I am smiling a lot lately.
I bought my D750 in 2020 with the intention of learning how to use it and also, as a hobby. Then, covid hit and it got put aside. So now in 2024, I have a brand new D750 to continue exploring photography with. Your videos made me pick it back up again because I was going to sell it to get a mirrorless.
I totally agree with your comments. The important thing about this camera is that, in my case, it makes me feel very comfortable with it. Long live the D750. Hello from Madrid, Spain
I have had my D750 for 7 years now. It's the best camera I have ever owned. I bought the Z6ii about a month ago. And I love that camera so far as well. But I am definitely going to keep my D750. No way I can bring myself to part with it. I mostly do studio shoots with an occasional outdoor shoot. Both cameras are outstanding.
If i may ask, what do you see are the practical the differences (+/-) between the D750 and D610. I have a D750 and wondered if I should pick up a D610 and if so, why? Thanks in advance. Thumbs up.
Just bought a D750 today with a 50mm 1.8G - lots to learn but looking forward to it - it was your Astro video that convinced me to give it a try 😊 looks like a great allrounder…
You are so right about this camera, the shots out of it are high quality for sure and that doesn't change no matter how many new models come out. Built to last and still does an amazing job - which you can see by your many great examples.
Thank you Adrian for another great video. Just for information, I am an amateur; I purchased my Nikon D750 new in 2017. It is still going strong and has never let me down.
Thank you for the effort and sharing. I am an appreciative subscriber. I literally photographed an event this morning and opted for the D750 because the built in flash just added a kiss of fill flash via TTL and that was all I needed. The D750 is often the right tool for the job. Thumbs up.
I just returned from my holidays with it and even I’m still impressed 😅 I took it along with me because it was lighter than my D850 and knew I wouldn’t be disappointed! My fave function is the U1 and U2 function which came in handy at the Melbourne City fireworks 🎆 because I dialled in my settings and saved them while capturing other scenes. You can have 3 different settings ready to go at your finger tips 👌
D750 has been my main camera for years. 3 years ago got a D850 primarily for aerial work, but with the new AI editing features, the D750 can do the job about as well. Heck, my D700s upscale very nicely (and quickly) in Lightroom classic, rivaling the standard D750 files. Did upscale the D850 a time or two but realized I'd need a lot more computer. ...and a lot more storage!
I bought a D750 second hand around 2 years ago, had a low shutter count and I thought it was a great upgrade from my D3300. I use it for family events and to take photos of my daughter in her ballet shows and school activities. It's great to see videos like yours that encourage me to improve my photography with the camera. I have gotten some great shots with the Yongnuo 50mm, still have to find a good zoom, currently I have a Tamron 28-75 and a somewhat sketchy Sigma 70-200 still to be tamed. I was thinking of going mirrorless but don't have the cash right now so will keep playing with the D750 for a while.
Adrian, great video. Yup the Nikon D750 was on my wish list when I was about ready to retire, and during Christmas in 2018, it was going for under $1,000. BUT, my wife did want to send that much money. So, I had to wait for few years later, I purchase a Nikon Z5 on sale under $900.
I only just bought one last week. I have three Nikon film SLRs, a D40 and D90 and every one of them still works, from my FE from 40 years ago to my DSLRs. Nikon is pure magic.
I bought my D750 two years ago. It is my third Nikon camera. My photography professors all suggest that I upgrade to a full frame camera. Research ended me with the D750. I love the camera. It is heavy but produces great pictures.
My first Full Frame digital camera. Sadly (for me) sold it on when the Z's came along but can still enjoy the images I created and learned quite a bit about photography with that camera. Not quite the same nostalgia as the D850 or D500 (at least not enough that I'd consider buying another) but a legend none the less. Cheers!
Bought it last spring for the reputation for low light. After first outing shooting Rodeo at night at first look I was disappointed, until I began to post process, and I was blown away as I raised the exposure and shadows the quality and detail was jaw dropping!!!
Nice job Adrian! You make me want to travel to Australia! I'm a retired visual journalist who bought a D780 and the D750 (as back-up) for my retirement. The D750 has 20 test frames on it and I was thinking of unloading it in favor of buying a Z8 set-up. But your video is making me re-think this! I'm not shooting much video these days and I simply need a reliable, high quality still camera for my nature shoots.
👍Holy truth, the Nikon D750 is a great camera. This is my first full frame SLR camera, it takes great photos and I'm still not convinced about the need to upgrade to the Nikons mirrorless.👏
Great video, thanks. I bought my D750 when they were first released and have used it for professional portraiture ever since. It's never missed a beat and the output quality has never been questioned by my clients. I started with a new D70 when they first came out, then upgraded to D300, followed by a D7100 (all DX) until finally upgrading to the D750 FX. The larger viewfinder alone was a huge improvement and the quality over the D7100 was noticable. I've considered the Z mirrorless range but I can't justify the cost of changing over, considering it's not going to increase my client base or income.
Thanks for watching. That’s exactly right. Clients don’t ask what camera you take photos with. They just care about the quality of the photos which the D750 delivers in spades 👍
I love my D750. I'm constantly amazed at the quality of the photos it produces. And one of the selling points for me, why I preferred it over the newer D780, was the pop-up flash. So handy, and works really well when you don't have your speedlight with you.
Great video Adrian! Infact I have been watching your other vids as well. Keep up the great work! Last year after using D800 and D7000 for a long time I wanted to buy a mirrorless full frame, but looking at the prices opted for D750 and paired that with Nikkor 16-35mm, 24-120mm and 80-400mm 5.6GVR for an Alpine trip in Europe. The results were stunning and I had no regret of not buying any mirrorless, and want to continue with this camera! So when I found your video totally agree with you!
I heard the dynamic range out of this camera is pretty insane. I saw one of your other D750 videos with that baby bird in a tree notch and it was crazy dark, yet you recovered stuff in post. Can see why people are still wanting it.
Hi Adrian, absolutely true. It is the photographer's skill, not the camera. You can take stunning photos even with your phone 🙂 But anyway, the D750 is definitely a good camera and there is no reason for not buying it. Thank you for the video, buddy! Enjoy your weekend, Christian
Thanks for watching Christian. D750 does deliver some great images I have to admit. I’m glad I kept it and didn’t sell it. Have fun this weekend buddy cheers 🍻 🙏
I think it's not just about the D750 that's keeping it relevant. The new mirrorless cameras caused all the pros to sell their F-mount glass and switch to the new mirrorless mounts. This was further compounded by the Z6 and the Z7 not being as good as the Canon and Sony offerings when they released (most of this was fixed with either firmware updates or the series II versions of the cameras) so then people switched to systems which the F-mount glass was not adaptable to. The market was flooded with expensive F-mount glass and the prices went down. I bought a D500 with grip, 2 peak design straps, a bag, a ton of lenses: 18-140mm DX VR, 35mm f/1.8, 40mm f/2.8 micro, 50mm f/1.4, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8 VR, and 200-500mm f/5.6 VR for less than $3000 a few months ago. To buy all of that glass (which isn't even available for Nikon in the Z-mount) for mirrorless would cost at least double, maybe triple.
I’ve been using a D3 300 for the last 10 years, and was eager to upgrade. Looking at all my options, I thought the only demonstrably better camera would have to be the D750. I found a good deal on a preowned unit two days ago, and I am very happy with it.
Hi! I'm an argentinian photographer and i'll travel to Europe in October .. and i am absolutely going to buy a second hand d750 in mpb or somwwhere else. I've always wanted it and i hope i can finally have it this year! Thanks for your video, i'm loving your content! ❤
Really appreciate you watching my channel. Happy travels 🙏

Great review Adrian and your nearly convincing me in buying one, I use MPB site and prices start from 334€ hmmm, have to ask the wife! Many thanks for sharing the info - have a great weekend
Hi Shaun, thanks for watching mate. I think your cameras are good enough my friend. I thought you'd be eyeing off the new Osmo Pocket 3. Very good for vlogs in low light apparently. Enjoy your weekend 🙏
8 месяцев назад
@@adrianalfordphotography recently bought the Pocket 3 with mic, very good 👍
Got mine last year .. Mainly for the pop up flash !! well really for the the CLS Flash control that the pop up flash allows !! but also the really good sensor.
I bought my D750 factory refurbished in 2017, and I'm still using it to this day. My only real complaint has been the way Lightroom's camera profiles handle color, especially skin tones. It's a beast for studio portraits and astro. I use it for burlesque shows, where the dynamic range really comes in handy. The max ISO of 6400 can be a bit limiting in dimly lit bars, but Lightroom's amazing new AI denoise has really extended its usefulness.
My D750 is still going strong, and I'm really happy with the images it produces (not leaving me wanting on image quality). The lenses available now for mirrorless though are so tempting (sharper, smaller, sometimes lighter, and different focal lengths esp. for wide angle) and just aren't available for F-mount. Has me really debating a Z6iii, or a Z8! Or, maybe just a D780 for a minor upgrade.
I have a D750 and I love it, especially for indoor photos with natural light without a flash. It is simply a classic camera that does everything well. 🎉
I recently grabbed a used D750 having < 500 clicks, virtually brand new and was amazed at the results. I have been using Nikon Zf mirrorless for past 6-8 months but just few days of owning D750 has given me more joy and enjoying the Photography and learning how to compose without EVF, obviously it can't compete with low light performance of Nikon Zf but it holds up pretty well given it's 10+ yr old tech, so much so that I am even thinking of selling my Zf as this camera has enough to keep amateur like me happy for few more years ! It may seem odd but I am loving the IQ/Contrast and tone of DSLR pics than mirrorless. At times mirrorless pics look too good and unreal sharp, than what you see by your naked eyes.
I do have a Nikon D500 Crop Sensor, also have a Nikon Z50 mirrorless. I also have my D600 full frame but thinking on change it for a D750., possibly in the next month or so. I am a Nikon fan since the late 70's and have never regret it. I use to have a Nikon FM2 that my grandpa' gifted me back in the late 70's and since then I have been Nikon... Today I am just about to enter into my 65th birthday and getting ready for my retirement and the D750 will be my replacement of the D600 which have been great to me. The D500 and the Z50 are my go to for wildlife (D500) and Z50 for my Macro. I really appreciate your videos on the D750 and have giving me the information needed for my decision... Thank you very much.
I still own a D750 that I bought in Italy on vacation in 2016, and I still use it today. It takes great pictures after I adjusted the settings to suit my needs. It will probably stay with me until it stops working.
I have a D750 that I got just last year. It has less than 1000 clicks on it. The original owner had bought it while moving and thought he had lost it in the move and only found it several years later. I got it as I have a wonderful Nikon F4 and several very nice screw drive lenses for that set up and finally decided I wanted a digital Nikon that could use those lenses. The D750 is a natural for me. I'm not a professional but a very serious amateur and so I figured and I think rightly so that the 750 was a better fit for me than a D850 or any of the mirrorless Zed cameras that wouldn't have been able to fully use the lenses I have.
Hi Adrian, my 1st full frame was a D750 and I still have it and use it. I don't think I'll ever get rid of it because the camera value is greater than the resale value
Super video Adrian, as you know I don't shoot Nikon but I think all manufacturers sometimes almost hit the mark perfectly and when a model like that comes along and you happen to have it they hold a certain spot in your heart. I really love my now outdate Sony A6400 and like you with the D750 it would be very hard to part with it!👍👍👌👌
i have a d850 and d750 but last year the front curtain on d750 broke up inside the camera and i urgently looked for another knowing full well they were getting scarce but luckily i bought one for £795 gbp with 2000 shutter count it had everything as new ,when i can afford it ill get the other repaired and that will give me 2 d750 s which will last me now , my d850 is fantastic which is my main camera..great video by the way .
I just bought one for my wife from MPB in excellent condition with an 11,000 shutter count for $580. She doesn't care about mirrorless, high frame rate or video. She loves macro photography . I was looking at the Z5 and D7500 for around $200 more but for what she told me she wanted I think the D750 will do it all as well or better than either of the other two.
I still shoot on a d750. I do skate photography. For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s basically stills of moving subjects I rarely shoot continuous. In fact I rely on the zero latency viewfinder a dslr gives me. It does everything I need it to. I won’t be switching to mirrorless for a very long time
I just reached 757,500 shutter count on my 8 year old D750. The screen finally started to give out and all of my grips are worn out. Decided to get another one in 2024💪
Adrian it's Awesome too hear you say you Love ❤️ The D'750. I will never let my D-750 go and like you said it does everything you want it to do. And yes this is my second Camera that i luv to the Moon and back -- It feels so good in the hand, And oh boy is it a Workhorse.! Thanks again Adrian.!!! Boston Massachusetts
I have had one since the beginning. Cost per value drew me in. But, the first one took a hard drop and could not be fixed. And after all the research, I decided to get another, while they were still making them new. It does what I want it to do. I shoot a lot of social events, sports and found that upgrading from the kit 70-300 Tamron lens to a Nikon lens of the same specs really upped my game so to speak. Much better focus response for moving targets and better clarity /image quality. Over all image quality is great and battery life is amazing. So, choosing to be cost conscious, why change? Eye tracking would be awesome but I would have to adopt a whole new collection of lenses to go along with an expensive mirrorless camera. For me, a wonderful camera and all that's necessary.
Mine unfortunately fell into a river... I regret it very much, but I switched to the D780 which gives me just as much satisfaction. Still, the D750 had a little something special for me. A great camera!
Hi Adrian, I'm a wedding photographer in upstate NY I own 3 Nikon bodies I use 2 when shooting weddings the D750 W/ Nikkor 70-200 & D780 W/ Nikkor 24-70.
@renediazphotography3273 When shooting events, I have two D750 cameras, one hanging on my left with the 24-70 and the one on my right with the 70-200. Great combination when I'm the only shooter. Bought one D750 last year and one this year (2024).
I am a 51 yr old hobbiyst and have been using Nikon DX DSLR's since the D70 came out. After going through the D5000, D3100 and the D7200, I finally decided to switch to full frame and restrict myself to a 50mm lens to reboot my photography skills. Did not want to spend a fortune on a mirrorless option hence researched and decided to go for the D750. Was a little apprehensive due to the recall issues with this model but checked the serial on the unit if it wasn't on the recall list and took the plunge. Was lucky to find a new body and a well kept 50mm 1.8G lens on the used market. I am a little old school and wanted to stick to a DSLR and my intentions is to take stills only. Watching these videos, I am happy I made the right decision.
I bought a pre-owned D750 with a new shutter last year and absolutely love it. I guess that the main reason to upgrade from it would be to take advantage of the IBIS in the latest cameras.
Adrian again thank you for still loving the D-750, I will always watch your content as long as you continually have something to say about one of my favorite Cameras.! Kudos for you.!!! I always watch Commercials straight through, I like B&H anyways, other than the Stock learning as well, I purposely watch them because I know it gives you incentives as well.! It's the least I can do to support you.! Thanks for keeping up with the Nikon D750 Boston ❤️ Massachusetts A.K.A. BostonMassachusetts/TimeTraveler
I bought one 2 months ago and I love it. I've got no reservations from buying it. I see no reason to upgrade any time soon. Maybe in a year or two, I'll consider upgrading. For now, this guy is perfect for me.
My used D750 should be arriving tomorrow! It will be replacing my D5200 that has served me well for the last decade, and is it time for me to step into a full frame camera without spending a ton of money on mirrorless. I’ve only seen excellent reviews of the D750, I’m excited to get my hands on it!
Great video again Adrian. Now I have retired, I look at second hand value items and after seeing a review of yours bought this camera as I love your photographs. So glad I did as it’s superb. One thing is that there are not many videos about the 750, so I also inspiration from your tuorials. Thanks🤗
I bought mine just few days ago... for just $650 in very good condition and n just one try out.... I am in Love again!!!!! and my decision was influenced by your reviews and comments on this camera. So, Thank You!!!!!
Great video Adrian...I still use my D500 & had thought of upgrading to a D780....do you think the D780 is any better than the D750 as I am only a hobbyist but always strive to get more update gear.... thanks..😊
Hi Robert - thanks so much for watching the video. I have another video coming out this Saturday pretty much answering your question. See you then cheers 🙏
I bought my D750 new with the 24-120 lens. I have been considering a Z 6II, but looking at the cost, and whatever advantages mirrorless gives, I decided to keep the D750, and get a new wide angle zoom. Best camera I have ever had in over 50myears of shooting. BTW, I use a D200 as backup.
I guess with the higher cost of living nowadays, rent, house repayments, bills and food all going through the roof, the Nikon D750 secondhand is a viable budget option for those not splashed with cash 📸
The. D-750 is a Wonderful Camera

Great video, Adrian. I bought my D750 new back in the fall of 2014. It's still going strong and I'm keeping it!
Great to hear! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Absolutly agree, I changed the camera to z5, but I still sometimes continue to shoot on D750
I started my Nikon adventure with a D200. Later I made a step up to a D300s. In 2014 I read a review on a new Nikon release and put the D750 in my bucket list.

The D750 is another workhorse. It’s pretty insane how good the images straight out of that body look. Great video buddy!
Thanks Peter. Fired off some shots with 750 this afternoon. Man, I love this camera sometimes. Have a great weekend mate 👍🙏
I love my D750. It does everything I need a camera to do.
Fantastic! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I have the Nikon D750 and was thinking of selling until I saw your video. I may but respect it so much more. It’s definitely a great camera!! Thanks
I brought my d750 back in 2014 and love it. I don’t think I will ever get rid of it, and I still use it as my main camera
Awesome, thanks for watching 🙏
I bought a new 750 just before it was discontinued,love using it but also have a z7 for more detail if needed.Both are great 😊
Was just gifted the 750 for my father as an upgrade for my 700, can't wait to take it out.
I’ve also had a D750 since 2017, and it’s a fantastic camera. I have no intention of selling it. Thanks for a great video!
I've had mine since new, still my daily in 2024
I bought my D750 two years ago. It is my third Nikon camera. My photography professors all suggest that I upgrade to a full frame camera. Research ended me with the D750. I love the camera. It is heavy but produces great pictures.
Bought one a few years ago as my first Full-frame camera for Portraits. Still love it. Still going string
I have bought mine in december as a beginner. I didn't regret it.
My first Full Frame digital camera. Sadly (for me) sold it on when the Z's came along but can still enjoy the images I created and learned quite a bit about photography with that camera. Not quite the same nostalgia as the D850 or D500 (at least not enough that I'd consider buying another) but a legend none the less. Cheers!
Cheers for watching I really appreciate you kind comments. Hope you have an awesome weekend. Keep on clicking! 🙏📸
Bought it last spring for the reputation for low light. After first outing shooting Rodeo at night at first look I was disappointed, until I began to post process, and I was blown away as I raised the exposure and shadows the quality and detail was jaw dropping!!!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Nice job Adrian! You make me want to travel to Australia! I'm a retired visual journalist who bought a D780 and the D750 (as back-up) for my retirement. The D750 has 20 test frames on it and I was thinking of unloading it in favor of buying a Z8 set-up. But your video is making me re-think this! I'm not shooting much video these days and I simply need a reliable, high quality still camera for my nature shoots.
I purchased a used D750 a couple of years ago and have no regrets, it does everything that I want very nicely.
👍Holy truth, the Nikon D750 is a great camera. This is my first full frame SLR camera, it takes great photos and I'm still not convinced about the need to upgrade to the Nikons mirrorless.👏
Great video, thanks. I bought my D750 when they were first released and have used it for professional portraiture ever since. It's never missed a beat and the output quality has never been questioned by my clients. I started with a new D70 when they first came out, then upgraded to D300, followed by a D7100 (all DX) until finally upgrading to the D750 FX. The larger viewfinder alone was a huge improvement and the quality over the D7100 was noticable. I've considered the Z mirrorless range but I can't justify the cost of changing over, considering it's not going to increase my client base or income.
Thanks for watching. That’s exactly right. Clients don’t ask what camera you take photos with. They just care about the quality of the photos which the D750 delivers in spades 👍
I bought mine back in '15, and I am still very happy with it :-)
Love my D750 bought it to replace my D700 as my main way back in 2015. Still going strong and no plans on upgrading it.
I still use Nikon D750 until now. Love it
@@syafarizal awesome
Just bought on d750 japan, shutter count 50 mint condition just over $1000 thank you to your video love it
Still have, use and love my D750.
Of course I'm also thinking about mirrorless, but I'd never sell the 750.
Thanks for the video!
I love my D750. I'm constantly amazed at the quality of the photos it produces. And one of the selling points for me, why I preferred it over the newer D780, was the pop-up flash. So handy, and works really well when you don't have your speedlight with you.
Great video Adrian! Infact I have been watching your other vids as well. Keep up the great work! Last year after using D800 and D7000 for a long time I wanted to buy a mirrorless full frame, but looking at the prices opted for D750 and paired that with Nikkor 16-35mm, 24-120mm and 80-400mm 5.6GVR for an Alpine trip in Europe. The results were stunning and I had no regret of not buying any mirrorless, and want to continue with this camera! So when I found your video totally agree with you!
Thanks for watching. Just something very special about the D750 images. I love it 🙏
I heard the dynamic range out of this camera is pretty insane. I saw one of your other D750 videos with that baby bird in a tree notch and it was crazy dark, yet you recovered stuff in post. Can see why people are still wanting it.
Thanks for watching. Yeah I remember that. D750 is very impressive for recovery of dark areas in pics. Enjoy your weekend 📸🙏
Yes, I still have my D750 and I plan on keeping it.
Hi Adrian, absolutely true. It is the photographer's skill, not the camera. You can take stunning photos even with your phone 🙂
But anyway, the D750 is definitely a good camera and there is no reason for not buying it.
Thank you for the video, buddy!
Enjoy your weekend,
Christian
Thanks for watching Christian. D750 does deliver some great images I have to admit. I’m glad I kept it and didn’t sell it. Have fun this weekend buddy cheers 🍻 🙏
I think it's not just about the D750 that's keeping it relevant. The new mirrorless cameras caused all the pros to sell their F-mount glass and switch to the new mirrorless mounts. This was further compounded by the Z6 and the Z7 not being as good as the Canon and Sony offerings when they released (most of this was fixed with either firmware updates or the series II versions of the cameras) so then people switched to systems which the F-mount glass was not adaptable to. The market was flooded with expensive F-mount glass and the prices went down.
I bought a D500 with grip, 2 peak design straps, a bag, a ton of lenses: 18-140mm DX VR, 35mm f/1.8, 40mm f/2.8 micro, 50mm f/1.4, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8 VR, and 200-500mm f/5.6 VR for less than $3000 a few months ago. To buy all of that glass (which isn't even available for Nikon in the Z-mount) for mirrorless would cost at least double, maybe triple.
I’ve been using a D3 300 for the last 10 years, and was eager to upgrade. Looking at all my options, I thought the only demonstrably better camera would have to be the D750. I found a good deal on a preowned unit two days ago, and I am very happy with it.
Yes, my D750 focuses reliably, has low noise, good colour and it focuses my old screw driven D lenses too.
Hi! I'm an argentinian photographer and i'll travel to Europe in October .. and i am absolutely going to buy a second hand d750 in mpb or somwwhere else. I've always wanted it and i hope i can finally have it this year!
Thanks for your video, i'm loving your content! ❤
Really appreciate you watching my channel. Happy travels 🙏
Great review Adrian and your nearly convincing me in buying one, I use MPB site and prices start from 334€ hmmm, have to ask the wife! Many thanks for sharing the info - have a great weekend
Hi Shaun, thanks for watching mate. I think your cameras are good enough my friend. I thought you'd be eyeing off the new Osmo Pocket 3. Very good for vlogs in low light apparently. Enjoy your weekend 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography recently bought the Pocket 3 with mic, very good 👍
Got mine last year .. Mainly for the pop up flash !! well really for the the CLS Flash control that the pop up flash allows !! but also the really good sensor.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I bought my D750 factory refurbished in 2017, and I'm still using it to this day. My only real complaint has been the way Lightroom's camera profiles handle color, especially skin tones. It's a beast for studio portraits and astro. I use it for burlesque shows, where the dynamic range really comes in handy. The max ISO of 6400 can be a bit limiting in dimly lit bars, but Lightroom's amazing new AI denoise has really extended its usefulness.
Thank you for watching
My D750 is still going strong, and I'm really happy with the images it produces (not leaving me wanting on image quality). The lenses available now for mirrorless though are so tempting (sharper, smaller, sometimes lighter, and different focal lengths esp. for wide angle) and just aren't available for F-mount. Has me really debating a Z6iii, or a Z8! Or, maybe just a D780 for a minor upgrade.
I have a D750 and I love it, especially for indoor photos with natural light without a flash. It is simply a classic camera that does everything well. 🎉
Totally agree! Thank you for watching 🙏
Professional wedding photographer here too, I always have my D750 on my left and my A7iii on my right. It’s my dream team 😊
I recently grabbed a used D750 having < 500 clicks, virtually brand new and was amazed at the results. I have been using Nikon Zf mirrorless for past 6-8 months but just few days of owning D750 has given me more joy and enjoying the Photography and learning how to compose without EVF, obviously it can't compete with low light performance of Nikon Zf but it holds up pretty well given it's 10+ yr old tech, so much so that I am even thinking of selling my Zf as this camera has enough to keep amateur like me happy for few more years ! It may seem odd but I am loving the IQ/Contrast and tone of DSLR pics than mirrorless. At times mirrorless pics look too good and unreal sharp, than what you see by your naked eyes.
It was my first full frame camera, bought in 2014 and used 5 years. Amazing camera.
I do have a Nikon D500 Crop Sensor, also have a Nikon Z50 mirrorless. I also have my D600 full frame but thinking on change it for a D750., possibly in the next month or so. I am a Nikon fan since the late 70's and have never regret it. I use to have a Nikon FM2 that my grandpa' gifted me back in the late 70's and since then I have been Nikon... Today I am just about to enter into my 65th birthday and getting ready for my retirement and the D750 will be my replacement of the D600 which have been great to me. The D500 and the Z50 are my go to for wildlife (D500) and Z50 for my Macro. I really appreciate your videos on the D750 and have giving me the information needed for my decision... Thank you very much.
I still own a D750 that I bought in Italy on vacation in 2016, and I still use it today. It takes great pictures after I adjusted the settings to suit my needs. It will probably stay with me until it stops working.
It is a really a great camera. It is incredible at how many pros still use this and the D700 for professional work.
Cheers David, thanks so much buddy 🙏
My Nikon Z5 got stolen 2 weeks ago so I picked up my old d750 again and my photos have never been more crisp 👌
I have a D750 that I got just last year. It has less than 1000 clicks on it. The original owner had bought it while moving and thought he had lost it in the move and only found it several years later. I got it as I have a wonderful Nikon F4 and several very nice screw drive lenses for that set up and finally decided I wanted a digital Nikon that could use those lenses. The D750 is a natural for me. I'm not a professional but a very serious amateur and so I figured and I think rightly so that the 750 was a better fit for me than a D850 or any of the mirrorless Zed cameras that wouldn't have been able to fully use the lenses I have.
That's so great to read! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Hi Adrian, my 1st full frame was a D750 and I still have it and use it. I don't think I'll ever get rid of it because the camera value is greater than the resale value
Thanks very much for watching 🙏
I bought mine new right as the 780 was announced. I shoot it along with my d7000. Love both and I am not planning on getting rid of them.
I bought this D750 in the year of 2016 and still am using it side by side with Z6ii.
Both of them are very good indeed.
Super video Adrian, as you know I don't shoot Nikon but I think all manufacturers sometimes almost hit the mark perfectly and when a model like that comes along and you happen to have it they hold a certain spot in your heart. I really love my now outdate Sony A6400 and like you with the D750 it would be very hard to part with it!👍👍👌👌
Thanks for watching Scott. I use the D750 weekly for at least something I have to do. It’s always been a reliable camera. Cheers mate 🙏👍
i have a d850 and d750 but last year the front curtain on d750 broke up inside the camera and i urgently looked for another knowing full well they were getting scarce but luckily i bought one for £795 gbp with 2000 shutter count it had everything as new ,when i can afford it ill get the other repaired and that will give me 2 d750 s which will last me now , my d850 is fantastic which is my main camera..great video by the way .
Awesome read cheers mate. Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I just bought one for my wife from MPB in excellent condition with an 11,000 shutter count for $580. She doesn't care about mirrorless, high frame rate or video. She loves macro photography . I was looking at the Z5 and D7500 for around $200 more but for what she told me she wanted I think the D750 will do it all as well or better than either of the other two.
I bought my D750 in 2019, and I’m still happy with the image quality I get
I still shoot on a d750. I do skate photography. For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s basically stills of moving subjects I rarely shoot continuous. In fact I rely on the zero latency viewfinder a dslr gives me. It does everything I need it to. I won’t be switching to mirrorless for a very long time
I just reached 757,500 shutter count on my 8 year old D750. The screen finally started to give out and all of my grips are worn out. Decided to get another one in 2024💪
Adrian it's Awesome too hear you say you Love ❤️ The D'750. I will never let my D-750 go and like you said it does everything you want it to do. And yes this is my second Camera that i luv to the Moon and back --
It feels so good in the hand, And oh boy is it a Workhorse.!
Thanks again Adrian.!!!

Thank you so much for watching the video 🙏
I have had one since the beginning. Cost per value drew me in. But, the first one took a hard drop and could not be fixed. And after all the research, I decided to get another, while they were still making them new. It does what I want it to do. I shoot a lot of social events, sports and found that upgrading from the kit 70-300 Tamron lens to a Nikon lens of the same specs really upped my game so to speak. Much better focus response for moving targets and better clarity /image quality. Over all image quality is great and battery life is amazing. So, choosing to be cost conscious, why change? Eye tracking would be awesome but I would have to adopt a whole new collection of lenses to go along with an expensive mirrorless camera. For me, a wonderful camera and all that's necessary.
Mine unfortunately fell into a river... I regret it very much, but I switched to the D780 which gives me just as much satisfaction. Still, the D750 had a little something special for me. A great camera!
Hi Adrian, I'm a wedding photographer in upstate NY I own 3 Nikon bodies I use 2 when shooting weddings the D750 W/ Nikkor 70-200 & D780 W/ Nikkor 24-70.
That's brilliant to hear. Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
@renediazphotography3273 When shooting events, I have two D750 cameras, one hanging on my left with the 24-70 and the one on my right with the 70-200. Great combination when I'm the only shooter.
Bought one D750 last year and one this year (2024).
I am a 51 yr old hobbiyst and have been using Nikon DX DSLR's since the D70 came out. After going through the D5000, D3100 and the D7200, I finally decided to switch to full frame and restrict myself to a 50mm lens to reboot my photography skills. Did not want to spend a fortune on a mirrorless option hence researched and decided to go for the D750. Was a little apprehensive due to the recall issues with this model but checked the serial on the unit if it wasn't on the recall list and took the plunge. Was lucky to find a new body and a well kept 50mm 1.8G lens on the used market.
I am a little old school and wanted to stick to a DSLR and my intentions is to take stills only. Watching these videos, I am happy I made the right decision.
I bought a pre-owned D750 with a new shutter last year and absolutely love it.
I guess that the main reason to upgrade from it would be to take advantage of the IBIS in the latest cameras.
Yep, still love my D750s. I have two.
Awesome 👍🙏
Still use my D750 and my D3 love the colours they give
Awesome. Thanks for watching 🙏
Adrian again thank you for still loving the D-750, I will always watch your content as long as you continually have something to say about one of my favorite Cameras.!
Kudos for you.!!!
I always watch Commercials straight through, I like B&H anyways, other than the Stock learning as well,
I purposely watch them because I know it gives you incentives as well.!
It's the least I can do to support you.!
Thanks for keeping up with the

Adrian, nice video, I appreciate you still loving the D750. Never had one my self but you can’t argue the quality camera that it is.
Thank you for watching. Just something magic about this camera that I can't bring myself to part with it. Have an awesome weekend my friend, cheers 🙏📸
I still use a D750! Its amazing 🎉
I’m still using it! Still great, plus you can get great lenses really cheap!
Love my D750, it does everything I need it to.
I bought one 2 months ago and I love it. I've got no reservations from buying it. I see no reason to upgrade any time soon. Maybe in a year or two, I'll consider upgrading. For now, this guy is perfect for me.
My used D750 should be arriving tomorrow! It will be replacing my D5200 that has served me well for the last decade, and is it time for me to step into a full frame camera without spending a ton of money on mirrorless. I’ve only seen excellent reviews of the D750, I’m excited to get my hands on it!
You’ll love it 👍
Great video again Adrian. Now I have retired, I look at second hand value items and after seeing a review of yours bought this camera as I love your photographs. So glad I did as it’s superb. One thing is that there are not many videos about the 750, so I also inspiration from your tuorials. Thanks🤗
I bought mine just few days ago... for just $650 in very good condition and n just one try out.... I am in Love again!!!!! and my decision was influenced by your reviews and comments on this camera. So, Thank You!!!!!
I’ve been using this for video and photography interchangeably. It’s absolutely fantastic, and extremely robust. Tokina and Tamron lenses work great.
I still own a Nikon D750 and love it.
Great video Adrian...I still use my D500 & had thought of upgrading to a D780....do you think the D780 is any better than the D750 as I am only a hobbyist but always strive to get more update gear.... thanks..😊
Hi Robert - thanks so much for watching the video. I have another video coming out this Saturday pretty much answering your question. See you then cheers 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography ok..many thanks..😊
I bought my D750 new with the 24-120 lens. I have been considering a Z 6II, but looking at the cost, and whatever advantages mirrorless gives, I decided to keep the D750, and get a new wide angle zoom. Best camera I have ever had in over 50myears of shooting. BTW, I use a D200 as backup.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I traded in my D200 for a D750 in March 2015. It has worked flawlessly ever since. My only (small) regret is that I didn’t keep the D200.
