I purchased this product with the interest of entering photography, I was very much a beginner, since purchasing this camera I have learnt so much and grown so much as a photographer. It was definitely worth the money.

The D610 is my favorite Nikon DSLR. It's the same thing as last year's D600, which was also my favorite. The D610 has the optimum resolution for FX. The D800 has too many pixels which clogs my hard drives, slows my workflow, and the D800 can't shoot as fast for the same reason.

That still belongs to the Canon EOS 6D($1,599.00 at Amazon), another entry-level body, but one with built-in Wi-Fi and GPS that is priced $100 less than the D610. Design and FeaturesAfter extended use many D600 shooters discovered that a higher-than-normal amount of dust spots showed up at the edges of the camera's image sensor, to the point where Nikon felt the need to issue a service advisory for the issue.
