Nikon D810 Real World Review

When Nikon announced the D810 many people thought it was simply a minor update to the D800. The truth of the matter is that it was a very nice evolution of an already nice camera.
It's added more FPS, better focus, refined buttons, higher and lower ISO and much more.
Personally I was not a fan of the original D800. Don't get me wrong, it's a very nice camera but it had some issues for me. First I thought the files were to large because of the 36 Mega Pixels. Each 14 bit RAW Uncompressed file was 75 megs on my card. To be honest even if they did offer me the RAW S I would not have used it at the time.
One of the main issues I had with the D800 was the fact that the ISO topped out at 6400. At the time it seemed like even lesser cameras could shoot in lower light situations. I think one of the main reasons behind this was the fact that Nikon saw this as a studio type camera. But in this day and age you really want an all around great cameras wether it's in the studio or on location in low light.

[@Megabean]

This video has set the bar higher for your channel, bravo to the fro!

[@froknowsphoto]

Photographic Time Thank you. We have been working hard to raise the bar higher than others.

[@Naider95]

Jared Polin You should do a lot more of these videos!

[@oBCHANo]

This was definitely one of the best reviews I've seen on KZbin, being out on the streets in an interesting place using the thing with good information and sample images, with higher quality video/sound than I've seen in most places, etc. Reviews should always be like this, although it could be a lot of work to maintain such high quality for every review.

[@treverpitts]

Photographic Time if you like this video you may like other channels like Nikon D750 Hands-On Field Test

[@biertjuh58]

Hand on field test are highly underrated. Seriously Jarred - awesome job and a great review of this little beast of a camera. Keep up the excellent work!

[@froknowsphoto]

Jan Bierens Thank you. I feel its the way we can really see how things work.

[@biertjuh58]

Once again - awesome.

[@ericmatthews5482]

[@colinnoel4289]

Jared Polin This is seriously the best video you've ever posted and the best review I've ever watched. Organized, flowing, well-edited, informative, and detailed without dragging on for too long. Love it.

[@OniSamurai_86]

I have to admit that the first time I saw your videos I thought you were ridiculous, but then I understood your sense of humor and began to like every and each of your reviews. Now I can spend all day watching your videos man. Thanks for taking your time to do this and share your knowledge with us.

[@njrivetelite]

Your production value and flow is constantly reaching new heights. Great review. I loved seeing Poland and a great lengthly review of the functionality plus quality the camera puts out.

[@froknowsphoto]

Brian Michael you're welcome.

[@AlanBrockImages]

Man it's been fun to see this channel evolve over the years! This is probably your best effort to date...well done!

[@nicklo8457]

That review was great Jared! Looking forward to see more reviews in that style!

[@KyTrys]

To be honest this video is by far the best review you have done. Some of those photos are absolutely stunning. I love the direction you are going!

[@froknowsphoto]

Kyle Potter thank you

[@MultiSaarthak]

+Jared Polin Very nice review thats how review must be...not talking abt the specs...infact talkng abt how it really works😄

[@TheMamiya]

Good job Jared. I've seen a lot of your reviews over the last couple of years, and even though I like your style, I loved your approach in this field review. I guess it's impossible not to be thrilled wearing a D810, and you got totally lucky with all that action going on in Poland that day. Please, make some more field reviews, if you get the chance. You are a great shooter, and always fun to watch.

[@jfeagle214]

Awesome job on this video. Great to see you guys raising the bar on the already great content you were putting out.

[@92blckt]

Jared, i've always watched camera reviews and i've learn a lot of things from it, but your videos where always the more reliable to me. Congratulations, you rock! (sorry for the possible bad english)

[@GrzegorzBorysPhoto]

I hope you enjoyed Warsaw and Poland, really happy to see a vid from you made here. Thx for the insight on the D810!

[@SpencerLupul]

This is one of your best vids to date Jared, Damn!

[@antonoat]

Great vid Jared, in fact it's by far the best review of this camera I've seen. Thanks a ton for sharing all the valuable info. cheers Tony

Now this was a breath of fresh air. As some others already expressed, this truly felt interesting to watch. The blooper reel bonus was golden! Stay awesome Fro!

[@ledu15]

This is the coolest review I ever seen. Good work.

[@s3rvf]

I love your channel! I was so surprised seeing this review made in Warsaw, because that's my city ;) Great job, great reviews!

[@Maniak5100]

Stellar review of the camera and very pleasing to see it all shot in Warsaw. Thanks for another great video, Mr. Fro!

[@estudio100rafa]

Man I missed your camera reviews... Finally! thank you

[@g.scoponi]

Wow, this review was awesome. and from reading some of the comments i see i'm not the only one who loved it. I guess it was the powerful combination of : great technical info (lots of specs that give us a precise idea about the d810), shooting tips( use your bag for stability, offer money and photos to the break ddancers) and being out there in the street shooting, and encountering people. i really love your channel, never miss a show, but i must say this episode was special.

[@kevindiossi]

Very good quality video, Jared. I'm not a Nikon shooter, but love to follow the other gear and the D810 sounds and looks like it's a BEAST!

[@TalismanRocks]

Awesome video Fro, well done - love my D810! Those 2 guys that came up & stood next to you at the end cracked me up...

[@buhta86]

Very good Jared, this kind of reviews I think are the best ways to show the capabilities of the cameras, do more of them.

[@froknowsphoto]

Miroslav Marinov I agree, thank you.

[@rickymoran813]

The blooper wheel was cool and great video!

[@gastonseijas2677]

A field test review with consumer cameras like d3200 would be great! Loving your videos Jared! Keep it up!

[@RobertNZ]

Yup, I like this kind of review ... for the same reason I enjoy the DigitalRev reviews. They're out-and-about, real world stuff .... highly engaging! Are we likely to see more out-and- about stuff, Fro? I'm sure we wont expect you to travel the world every week ... local is great :D

[@ldyates]

One of your best reviews Jared. Very helpful... I'm sold!

[@ProducoesORaquelo]

Amazing video! It was almost like a city tour. Loved the ending

[@italianreviewer]

This review was really awesome! Thank you for giving all these tips and contents.

[@killjoyshidae1208]

I must say, your videos have improved tremendously, and they still are improving for the better! I really enjoyed this review, and I hope more success come to your future! :)

[@stuartwatson3648]

Great review, as others have already said. Good work Jared end and Stephen. Look forward to seeing some out on the streets of Philly videos!

[@froknowsphoto]

Stuart Watson Thank you.

[@cwbh10]

Now this is a proper video! well done, especially the clips at the end.. normally 'eh' was actually quite amusing! also well done with the review

[@simitometi6219]

Woah, wasn't expecting this. Definitely your best review yet! You just set the bar higher your channel Fro. PS Glad to see you left the ego at home.

[@MyRetroJourney]

Thumbs up Jared, this is your best review so far!

[@froknowsphoto]

MrBillMorisson Thank you!!!

[@f1matt]

I'm not sure what I preferred. The review or the bloopers. Great video Jared!

[@Ruffffrider]

After watching this, I am convinced that I will be upgrading from my D7000 to a D810 come Xmas. This review was sick sick sick. Many thanks Fro 👍👊

[@JorgeBurrezo]

This is the best review of the d810 in internet. Thanks!

[@callops17]

This video is definitely worth a like, very informative about the D810 in everyday use. Also, very entertaining!

[@ejbernal2]

Beautiful camera, beautiful pictures....the pictures say it all. I haven't always been a fan of your vids, Jared, but this is your best you've ever done. I have no problems with Nikon; I'm just too invested in Canon to switch.

[@goommenter]

I just got back from warsaw and those dancers were so awesome! Their show were awesome no matter I didnt understand a word! I felt in love to warsaw, expecially the "walking street" old town to centrum. And btw. Great video!

[@bogdanwieczorek5934]

So cool to watch your review made in my hometown! Thanks :)

[@mcrazza]

Looking forward to the D750 review in the same style as this review.

[@stdoval]

This was actually pretty good, man. I like these "real world" reviews.

[@paulhills1967]

Awesome video Jared & Stephen - thank you.

[@MarioDiLeonardo]

Well, well, well done, Jared. The first review of that camera that I didn't bored me. Best of all: it wasn't fonboy-ish and finally I could see some images coming out of it without the weird colors that I witness a lot by a couple of other Nikon shooters. Now I'm convinced that it's the user not the camera who does this.

[@daveraw4645]

Best video review you ever made, keep improving i really enjoy your videos

[@froknowsphoto]

Dave Raw thanks.

[@player2mac10]

Man those are some really nice photos and that video coming out of that. D810 is nice

[@MichaelCMadden]

Been looking for a full frame camera for a project I'm working on for Australian War Veterans called The Victoria Cross Sequence. This video sold me on the D810, thank you. Good work, keep an eye out for the book.

[@D45Z]

Wow, I surely am impressed. Jared should definitely do more video reviews like this one!

[@nicu8628]

nice review... and thanks for offering direct link for the raw files!

[@definitelynotofficial7350]

Thanks Jared! By the way, you are the reason I now shoot RAW, and my pictures improved dramatically since then!

[@MarcoBianchi313]

Fantastic video as always!

[@detailed8962]

Enjoyed this video a lot ... you should do more of these :)

[@hismajesty40]

Excellent presentation and review!

[@Bla274]

Hey Jared! This video was amazing and very useful. I'd would love a video for true beginners that are just getting into the cameras and the photography, that'd be great!

[@froknowsphoto]

Bla274 That's the FroKnowsPhoto Beginner Guide To Getting Out Of Auto. FroKnowsPhoto.com/guide

[@repairdrive]

Keep doing more videos like this. Good stuff!

[@rickytrix]

this is what you need. this kind of reviews

[@ramenday3198]

Awesome video Jared Polin! I loved the out takes at the end too, ever thought about doing a gag reel video?

[@SimonAndersonphotography]

Great field test but really enjoyed the cut scenes at the end lol

[@djtwilite318]

this was a great video. thanks. question: what are your white balance settings? i see you have great color in the videos and stills and im having trouble achieving that? was it done in post or what?

[@TheRafalblog]

Hey Jared great review you have made in Warsaw from such a historical place. BTW I'm about to buy a full frame Nikon camera but I'm now between D750 and D810 and a bit confused which one choose?

[@gedebayu8167]

what kind of picture control setting do u use? like it so much

[@mrgclips]

I've seen some of your clips before but didn't particularly liked them, but this was a FUN clip! Also, I was curious whether you'll mention the things I myself noticed comparing my D800 and the new D810 and you did, at least some of them. Great job again on THIS clip! :)

[@froknowsphoto]

mrgclips thank you

[@alexandergomes3317]

Jared Polin .I'm relocating to the uk in December. ...I hsve a d800e and d810 and need advise on how to ship them jarid

[@therealBOSKI]

Best review you've ever done.

[@videocabinet]

Do more of these videos please. I appreciate Rawtalks and I do watch them, but in several instances the talks were lengthy and not to the point. This type of videos got me hooked to your channel in the first place. I like seeing your photography work and how you actually shoot as I comprehend better this way. I have been learning a lot from you for years now and I do shoot RAW. Thank you for all your efforts. I really appreciate them.

[@quickfocus5947]

Really good review congratulations

[@DanielFerrara]

Please do more videos like this. Informative, entertaining, awesome!!

[@froknowsphoto]

Daniel Ferrara we're working on it.

[@justindavis8116]

Hey Jared,I love your videos man. You have a good outlook. I'll keep watching.What lens were you using?

[@nevvanclarke9225]

Hi Jared Is the d810 going to out perform a d7500 in landscape/long exposure work. I have a d7500 and I’m actually getting good results but yup the age old question ...megapixel v iso performance Is this camera good still now

[@lukaielreece-sullivan4930]

Great review. I have a question. If you have the battery grip, does it shot 7 or 5 frames per second in fx?

[@danbasic]

Hi, you said that with AF-C the camera don't focus with single focus point, what about with AF ON (back button focus)? Thanks

[@adus0007]

Awesome review Jared ! I'm looking for some more materials from Warsaw or other cities. Greetings from Poland :)

[@jmarcos9631]

Can the D810 or D750 Record video at 1080 60p while shooting FX Raw or Jpeg continues or single photos at the same time? Does anyone know

[@l1onPL]

It's good to hear my native language in your video :) Greetings from Poland.

[@azonick]

Nice Review Jared. Firstly how is Lil. Prayers for her speedy recovery. Coming t the D810 awesome review. Many of us out here confused which one to go for D81 or D750 as some pro and enthusiast like me. Surffice to say the D750 has borrowed all what u have saif from D4s N D810 like (D810vs D750better has a star) 36mpx8/24.5mpx, ISO64*/100, Speed 1/8000*/1/4000, No OLPF*/AA Filter, Fixed screen/Tilting Screen*, Pro Like size n metal body / Pros & enthusiast Monocoque, CAM 3500FX -2Ev vs CAM 3500FX II AF* -3EV sensor, etc. So much so confuses people like us and looking forward from u for the D750 review, comparison & suggestion.

[@adnamaclemente]

How well does the af system works for video recording with the D810? Is it good for tracking moving objects? Is it smooth?

[@photographerjonathan]

I have to give you credit when credit is do, enjoyed the video, nice job, it's nice to see you acting like an intelligent person speaking to adults without any un needed junior high school antics, and judging by the other comments, I think your viewers agree that this was one of your best videos, I just wish you did some night time high ISO shots, the D810 is a really sweet camera, the image quality looks top notch, it's probably the best full frame camera on the market, I just wish Nikon put out the same camera in a mirrorless that was 400 grams lighter, and with a fully articulating touch screen, when you were shooting the video I thought to bad he doesn't have the Tamron 24/70 f2.8 with VC you could've had image stabilization, also I have shot my entire photography life without a vertical grip, and I am totally comfortable without one, and prefer to not have the extra weight and size, I would rather just carry an extra battery around

[@erikfranciscoruizdelgado2377]

Which one do yo recommend me for video? the nikon d810 or the blackmagic production camera 4k

[@miguelangelsalomon2993]

nice review, love your videos! Come to Argentina one day! :D You´d love it.

[@kalelissuperman]

Hi Jarod! I am seeking advise regarding the D810 and D4S and i am getting very mix messages. can the D810 do everything the D4s does beside the 11 frames and higher ISO, or there is more to ti? I mean i have seen comparison videos where they basically say that D810 can do everything the D4S does. Have you done a comparison between the two? From the video it see, that you prefer the D4S. if so why.? thank you!

[@bokeflo]

Great review Jared, Nikon D810 sounds like a great camera but I'm just not sure I need 36 megapixels so it might be the Nikon D750 for me.

[@matiascba87]

Just noticed you use your left eye to look through the viewfinder. I do so, too, but I've seen most people using their right eye, which seems to make more sense since you have more room for pushing buttons with your right hand and do not have the whole camera on your nose, and felt kind of weird using my left one even though it was a reflex and seemed natural to me. Good to know I'm not alone.

[@vishweshwarkandalgaonkar3446]

Nice review, tempting to buy

[@andreleander2051]

Jared you are really good at taking photos, i wish your thumbnails for reviews were a bit more interesting, so more people would watch them

[@photognate88]

love the video. vary cool camera. Quick correction I know from using my a7s it will do iso 50 for stills.

[@thingsinthelight8789]

Great video! Now I want this camera even more than I did before. Thanks for the review!!

[@froknowsphoto]

Things In The Light you're welcome.

[@thespian456]

the issue here is huge file size. Could you make a video answering the question: When do I need huge file sizes 36, 50, 100 mp?

[@miike111]

This is a good review on the camera and it was done differently in Poland and like the end too!!!

[@ciaranconlon]

Hi Jared, Does Stephen film all the videos on his 5Dmk3, it looks alot better then the blocky video quality of the D810, Also would love to see a video of Stephens workflow on the editing and colour grading. Cheers Guys,

[@bhuboydeleon3699]

Hi, what do you call the strap you are using here, thanks

[@amarg2199]

Good review. Great camera.

[@VladHTX]

Great stuff Jared ! waiting on that D750 review however ! :)

[@froknowsphoto]

eur0thug it's being completed now.

[@fourwheelerjock]

Can't wait for you to do a review on the 7D Mark II when it comes out :D. Great video btw.

[@TakingTheMike]

Great video, I learnt about the camera and a bit about street photography as well. I am sure I can hear something at 12:49, like Stephen muttering "true" behind the camera when you say the D810 is better than the D800

[@elihatamov634]

Hi, i love your tutorials and reviews i got canon 1 D mark ii n with the plastic fantastic (50mm-1.8f) im a begginer and i thought its the best quality for the price (300$ used without lends) can you please make a toturial for that camera its a pro camera and i dont know all the stuff in there, thanks

[@yourstrulybae]

the pictures are actually really good on this camera... should i get this camera or thre canon 5DsR??? cause the thing is that this doesn't have wifi or gps but at same time i don't know if the canon have it too...

[@thegreatga]

forgot to mention how awesome the new shutter sounds and feels, much less vibration than with the previous 800 versions.

[@FMJFilmMedia]

This review is really informative. I'm thinking I like this camera a lot. I own a Canon 6D which I like very much.

[@supertimotije]

Well done, very informative and useful. Thanks FRO.

[@froknowsphoto]

***** you're welcome.

[@stevenmichellekreti375]

Great review 👍
