For cinematographers and camera operators, the Nikon D810 will become one of the most versatile tools in your arsenal. The Nikon D810 will expand your vision and make you rethink what’s possible. After Nikon shook up the high-end market with a Nikon D800 36MP DSLR and D800E, but Nikon has consolidated 800-series with the release of the Nikon D810.
Some people may not entirely sure why Nikon released the Nikon D800 and Nikon D800E as a separate model two years ago. Nikon D800E offers several advantages, but if you do not really care you can be very happy with the D800 and you will save a bit of cash. Perhaps now, after the success with the Nikon D7100 and Nikon D5300, companies feel more confident about removing the AA filter of the body the highest resolution - though naturally at risk than we would expect from Nikon D800 and Nikon D800E well.
