Nikon D780 review

The Nikon D780 is something of a DSLR-mirrorless camera hybrid. But does it offer the best of both worlds?

Plenty of direct access controls Tilting touch-sensitive screen Dual card slots Fast live-view focusing Great battery life

Big and heavy Expensive

We hear a lot of talk about the death of the DSLR, and the unstoppable rise of mirrorless. But DSLRs remain the best choice for many photographers, particularly those who have existing lenses or honed their craft with optical viewfinders – and the D780...

The DSLR ain't dead (yet)

Two cards slots ; Great for video ; Sturdy

An all-rounder DSLR built like a tank, borrowing some tricks from its mirrorless siblings

Nikon D780 review

Nikon remains committed to its DSLR system, despite the D780 being the last F-mount camera it released, in early 2020. In the meantime, they have added no fewer than seven Z-mount models. These include the hugely impressive Z9 that has revitalised the...

The Nikon D780 is a blend of what we liked about the D750, with innards adopted from the Nikon Z 6 and a few other improvements added for good measure. Having spent some time with the Nikon D780 during a press briefing, we can confirm its focusing in...

Nikon D780 Tested To The Limits Review

We review the new Nikon D780, Nikon's new 24mp Full-Frame DSLR, designed to give the best of both world's with the body of a DSLR, and the sensor (and features) found in Nikon's mirrorless cameras.

As we found out, the Nikon D780 copes with almost everything you throw at it, including freezing cold climates and continues to produce excellent results. If you're in the market for a full-frame Digital SLR, then the Nikon D780, with a 24mp BSI CMOS...

Nikon D780 review: Even the best DSLR is still a DSLR

The Nikon D780 replaces the half-decade-old D750. It's a worthy upgrade, but its best new features concern live-view shooting, where the D780 becomes an overweight mirrorless camera.

Phase-detection in live view ; Eye AF works very well ; 4K video with 10-bit output ; Weather-sealed design ; 1/8000s to 15m shutter speed

Nikon D780 Review

Excellent 24MP full-frame sensor. ; 7fps bursts with tracking. ; 12fps electronic shutter. ; Tilting touch LCD. ; Phase detect focus for video. ; 4K with flat profile. ; In-camera charging.

More expensive than mirrorless alternative. ; Viewfinder autofocus has limited scope of coverage. ; Image sensor isn't stabilized.

The Nikon D780 is as good an SLR as you'll find, but it doesn't offer some of the advantages you get with mirrorless cameras.
