Nikon D800 (Body only)
Crutchfield has collected 4 user reviews for this product with an average rating of 5.0 out of 5 stars. The most recent reviewer said, "I just purchased this camera and got rid of my Nikon D5100, the D5100 is a great camera but it really lacks some of the great features that the D800 (and D700 for that matter) has. The use of 51 AF points is amazing, the focusing is so much faster on this camera I've yet to use the 3D tracking or the AF continuous, as most of my photography is pretty still, but I am sure it will amaze me. The uncompressed RAW files hover around, 75MBs and the lossless compressed are about 35MB which makes file management a tad more bearable. The image quality and detail does require a bit more attention, slower shutter speeds will blur but that should be expected with any camera. I do think it does require a little more attention than other cameras but the results are well worth it. High ISO shots are very usable unless cropped or pixel peeping. I purchased the AF-S 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 and the AF-S 50mm f/1.8, both perform admirably on the camera. From reading other reviews I was a bit worried that the lenses wouldn't perform well with the camera but I believe those people are just over exaggerating. Maybe if I had the "pro" lenses I could see the difference but until then I am happy with my results. The new D600 looks attractive and early reviews say that it is close to the D800, but the AF difference, tougher build, more bracketing, multiple exposures and intervalometer I think make up for the cost difference. This is a camera I will have for a LONG time."

Nikon D800
I was a bit apprehensive when I ordered the D800. I've read reviews that ran the gamut from good to bad ---- most were good, and was concerned about remarks from some indicating it was hard to get sharp images without a tripod. Well, I've had no problem u

Great Body
First the bad: It doesn't have wifi built in, nor can it use the cheap wifi adapter from Nikon. It doesn't have GPS built in, get a 3rd party GPS that has a compass (Nikon's doesn't). Only 4 fps without the grip and large battery. 6 fps with the grip in D

Strengths: Heavy Duty
Weakness: LCD screens could be brighter in sunlight
Apart from excellent image quality all round. Photos & Video. I accidentally put this camera to the test by dropping it from waist height . It fell out of my camera bag, landed on its corner on concrete. The result is ...amazing ... a very small scratch and the camera is working perfectly.

Nikon D800 (body only)
THE GOOD: The Nikon D800 boasts stellar photos, excellent videos, speedy performance, and a relatively streamlined shooting design. THE BAD: While theres nothing major to complain about, the D800s battery life could use a boost. THE BOTTOM LINE: An unsurprisingly great camera thats worth every penny of its higher price for its target market of professional nonsports photographers, the Nikon D800...
