Nikon recently announced the arrival of its latest addition to the DSLR market. The D810 replaces the D800 and D800E and essentially consolidates the features of both, while adding a few new improvements. The camera includes a 36.3MP full frame FX-format sensor, while the optical low pass filter (OPLF) that was included in the D800E, and the anti-aliasing filter in the D800, are not present at all here. The absence of the filters is intended to boost resolution and dynamic range and could potentially help the camera outperform several other DSLR on the market in terms of image quality.

The camera is designed to perform under extremely low light conditions. Among other features being heavily marketed by Nikon are: meticulous autofocus, fast frame rates and image processing, smaller and more manageable file formats, and excellent energy efficiency.

Features include:

36.3MP Full-frame CMOS sensor (no AA filter)

ISO 64-12,800 (expands to ISO 32-51,200)

Electronic first-curtain shutter and redesigned mirror mechanism
