While the Nikon D610 is an excellent camera that's capable of recording plenty of detail in images with rich tones, good exposure and pleasant colours it is considerably more expensive the Canon 6D.

Ever heard the expression ‘Bayer green', as a derogatory term used by film users and wondered what it meant? You wouldn't, as a 550D owner, if my example was anything to go by! Rendition of greens on the D3200 is far better and the sensor also captures...

We really like the Nikon D610, as many of our photographs we shot were spectacular. At the end of the day, however, the kit didn't really wow us like its predecessor, the D600 or the Sony A7, which is a breakthrough camera. It's not to say you won't be...

The only criticism we can really throw at the Nikon D610 is that it's nothing more than a D600 with minor tweaks. That may be solely to inspire greater confidence in the company's entry-level full-frame model, or it might just be part of the...

Nikon's D610 is a great value camera for anyone wanting to move from a crop sensor to a full-frame model. It's performance is great overall, and the build of the camera is solid. We like...
