SLR review and JPEG files simultaneously, so you have a full colour file for processing as well as a treated JPEG.
Conversely, rotating the mode dial to the Special Effects option results in only JPEG images being recorded – even if raw and JPEG recording is selected elsewhere. These Effects can be previewed in Live View mode. In many cases previewing an Effect is enough to convince you not to use it.
By including Wi-Fi connectivity in the D750, Nikon has gone a step further than Canon with its 7D Mark II for those wanting to control the camera remotely. However, Nikon’s free Wireless Mobile Utility app only offers limited control over the camera. It’s in effect just a wireless remote.
Verdict
The D750 is a great camera. Its Matrix-metering system is very capable, delivering correct exposure in a wide range of situations, and it produces images that have natural yet vibrant colours. It may not offer the class-leading detail resolution of the D810, but it’s more than a match for the D610 in this respect. The D750 captures an impressive level of sharp detail, and noise is controlled well.
One of the D750’s biggest selling points, however, is its AF system. There’s an array of AF modes and customisation options to tailor the system to the photographer and the subject. It takes some getting to know, but it affords pro-level control.
It’s a shame, though, that Nikon hasn’t taken the opportunity to correct some of the handling oddities of the past and make features like the Special Effects and HDR mode more attractive to enthusiasts.
