When it was released, the Nikon D810 might not, on the face of it, have looked like a terribly exciting camera. But if the D810 seemed unexciting at a casual glance, it's because its key selling points didn't necessarily jump out. The D800 and D800E set a high bar for 'wow!

Boasting a brand new 36.3-megapixel FX format sensor with no optical low pass filter, the Nikon D810 promises the highest image quality in Nikon's history, at least according to Nikon.

Nikon D810 Review
The Nikon D810 is a high-resolution monster with incredible image quality and performance. It's expensive, but earns Editors' Choice honors. The Nikon D810 ($3,299.95, body only) is a full-frame camera with a high-resolution 36-megapixel image sensor, a tank-like build quality, and loads of features that will satisfy pro photographers and serious amateurs alike. The image sensor omits a low-pass filter, which maximizes detail, putting it in the same class as medium format digital bodies for making large prints, and the 51-point autofocus system locks onto subjects with ease. Its 5fps burst rate is on the slow side for sports and action, but more than adequate for events and reportage. The D810 isn't a revolutionary upgrade to the D800 , but it offers a number of improvements and enhancements, making it our Editors' Choice professional D-SLR. Design and ControlsWhen you pick up the D810, you can feel its weight in your hands. It's hefty, just under 2 pounds without a lens, with that weight packed into a 4.9-by-5.8-by-3.3-inch (HWD) frame. The handgrip is slightly different than that of the D800. It's hard to tell the di...- High-resolution full-frame image sensor

The Nikon D810 was announced on June 26, 2014 replacing the D800 and D800E models. Its release followed on-going reports of focus alignment problems with the D800/D800E, which emerged within a couple of months of their release.
Great camera, with a budget lens
This kit is one that I would recommend to those looking to upgrade to a full-frame body as well as replace some of their crop sensor glass. Often times those who are making the jump to full-frame find that they need to replace some of their existing glass that is designed for use with APS-C or 'crop...
Nikon D810 Review: The Ultimate Adventure Camera?
Last month, I took the Nikon D810 out on the Sierra High Route - one of the toughest adventures around. It got dirty, wet, and constantly banged around. Here's how it performed.
Nikon D810
The 36-megapixel Nikon D810 has some pretty big shoes to fill, replacing the much-loved D800 and D800E with a single model. Taking the best of both, this detail-devouring beauty has even greater per-pixel resolution, a wider sensitivity range, greater performance, more capable video capture, and...- Handles even better than its predecessors

Nikon D810 review
In the spring of 2012, Nikon announced two of the highest-resolution DSLRs ever made – the D800 and D800E. These cameras are practically identical, the only difference being that the effect of the optical low-pass filter is cancelled out in the D800E.- 36.3-million-pixel
- full-frame sensor
- No optical low-pass filter
- Fast
- accurate 51-point AF system
- Large file size at full resolution
- Heavy and sizeable build
