And oldie but a goldie.

I had to upgrade my existing Nikon camera (D2Hs - over 10 years old!), so decided on the D610 after reading a lot of online reviews. This camera is easy to use, very ergonomic, and has a great feature set. I've made a short film with it too, and the results were very good considering the price point of the camera: however, a lot of it could be down to my use of prime lenses. In short, the D610 is a very worthy camera that shoots in full frame, and can also handle HD film at 30fps.Read full review...

Superb

I began my alliegence to Nikon with the EM a long time ago, and stayed with them through the D50 and others due to their wonderful lenses and perfect exposure electronics. The D7100 is excellent, but I returned to FX with the D600 and finally the D610. It does everything I could want: command of slave flashes, huge range of lenses going back decades. Well, it doesn't have Wi-Fi or GPS, so maybe there will be a successor worth moving to at some point, but the D610 has been in place for a decade now, so I'm likely in this for the next decade.Read full review...

An absolutely stunning camera

This is my first FX camera after many many years of DX. This is a one way trip - I will not be going back. I cannot begin to describe how different the full frame and cropped world's are - honestly chalk and cheese. I'm not slagging off my dx gear or cropped sensor cameras, absolutely not - but seriously folks if you can afford a full frame then buy one and don't look back. The D610 was the best route for me financially and I was not disappointed. This camera is amazing and I totally love it. Ignore all the reports of the those saying they wouldn't touch one over a D750 as the focussing etc is just no good. I haven't used a D750 but I have used many a camera and the D610 is massively powerful and focuses fast and beautifully. Those who slate the D610 in favour of the D750 I guarantee you will say how awful the D750 is when it gets replaced. I still have my D90 from new and would never sell it as it is still to this day a marvelous camera so I'm not someone who chases the latest (I couldn't really afford to if I did!) and believe me the D610 blows it away but it's still a great camera. Bottom line the D610 is the most amazing camera I've ever used and the images are stunning. It's ability in low light, high ISO and super fast focussing is a joy to behold. The images straight out of this camera are like butter. Top tip - get yourself a DX Nikon 35mm f1.8g and be prepared to be totally blown away, despite the vignetting. I love that combination so so much. Hope this review helps. Good luck. PaulRead full review...

D610 against D3200

I say it’s easy to use and it is as I am already knowledgeable on the use of a Nikon camera.
It has lots more features and is quite different from the D3200. I keep a note book on items that I use for reference. The Bracket feature is brilliant and great in White balance. I have FX lenses so all is compatible. I haven’t taken many photos with it yet as still mastering the controls but I am confident I will get some great results.Read full review...

D610

I recently purchased this camera moving up from a D7000. Very happy to migrate to FX but also happy to share my thoughts and honest feedback.

Build quality: Does not seem as robust as the D7000, just seems a little lighter and less defined. Not a negative thing by any means but it is a noticeable difference.
Ease of use: The jog wheel and controls are very small. All key features and buttons are smaller than on other cameras in this range so can be a little fiddly to operate/get used to.
Picture quality: Excellent. There is a distinct increase in overall quality and tone on this camera, the FX sensor delivers superior images and detail.
Mechanical observations: The processor on my particular model seems to be a little slow. Shooting in multiple or continuous mode freezes up the playback for a few seconds at a time. I am also running the memory in Jpeg and NEF at maximum capacity and have experienced a bit of drag when shooting and reviewing files, but this is not a major issue and has not compromised the camera's use in any way.

All in all I am very happy with this purchase. I was actually planning to buy a D750 but this model became available at a very good price. I may well invest in another body in the future but would definitely recommend this camera.

Still a very good camera!

The 610 is certainly not a new camera, but it is still a very good camera. I know some see it as an entry level full frame camera, however don't be misled it takes very good pictures the 24mp adds a lot to the picture quality.

If you are a Nikon user you will have no difficulty using this camera as the menus are effectively the same with a few additions. The controls are also broadly similar.

I have now had this camera for a couple of weeks and love it. If you are in the market for a full frame camera the 610 is a great buy and good value when compared to for example the D800.

Excellent, but not for the beginner.

The "Tell us more" question "Is it easy to use?" is impossible to answer, as although my previous Nikon was an F4, this is considerably more capable, and I am only beginning to understand how to use all its capability. For a professional photographer it is no doubt easy to use, but it is not for a beginner.

The camera is far more capable than my current understanding, and that is a great deal of its appeal, and I would heartily recommend it for someone who has a sound basic knowledge of digital photography and wishes to progress.

This was a very good buy, and excellent value.

Great image quality, fantastic value for money

This camera is an excellent value for money of all the full frame cameras out there. It is shocking the it actually produces a better image quality than the Canon 5d mkiii.
