You do not have to be a traditionalist to appreciate the features of Nikon's thoroughbred SLR camera Nikon D780.

Beautiful still image quality and razor-sharp 4K video. Close to perfect ergonomics, large viewfinder, extreme battery life, weatherproofing and touch screen. Great all-round SLR camera.

More expensive than the Nikon Z6 it is related to, moderate firing rate, no image stabilizer or the possibility of vertical grip. Missing joystick / pointing focus.

If you want a DSLR, the full-frame Nikon D780 is the one to buy. The follow-up to 2014’s popular D750, the $2,300 D780 is a new Goldilocks camera and Nikon’s first DSLR to include on-chip phase-detection autofocus. But do you want a DSLR? Look. I like the D780. It’s a balanced camera with strong performance and great image quality.

The Nikon D780 is a great option for sports and wildlife photography. While its max burst rate isn't especially quick, it has an extremely fast max shutter speed and a reliable autofocus system that makes it easy to capture photos of fast-moving subjects.

Excellent image quality., Superb autofocus performance on photography., Long battery life., High maximum shutter speed., Short photo buffer clearing time.
