Nikon D800e

Quick view

The Nikon D800e is a professional-grade full-frame DSLR camera that features a 36.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor, delivering extremely high resolution images. Unlike the D800, the D800e removes the optical low-pass filter to enhance image sharpness and fine detail capture, which is particularly useful for landscape and studio photography. It utilizes the EXPEED 3 image processing engine for fast processing speeds and excellent color reproduction. The camera supports both D-mount Nikkor lenses with a robust autofocus system that offers 51 AF points, including 15 cross-type sensors for precise focusing. The D800e also supports 1080p Full HD video recording with a range of frame rates, enabling professional video capture capabilities.

The camera's build is rugged with a weather-sealed magnesium alloy body designed to withstand challenging shooting environments. It features a 3.2-inch LCD monitor with 921,000 dots for accurate image review and live view functionality. The Nikon D800e supports dual card slots (CF and SD), allowing for flexible storage configurations. Connectivity options include USB 3.0 and HDMI output to facilitate fast data transfer and external monitoring. The camera offers a variety of advanced exposure modes, metering systems, and Picture Control settings to customize image output precisely.

The Nikon D800e’s main advantage is its ultra-high 36.3MP resolution sensor without an optical low-pass filter, providing unmatched image detail. It delivers excellent image quality with superb dynamic range and low noise performance, even at higher ISO sensitivities. The robust autofocus system with 51 points ensures accurate focus tracking on moving subjects. Dual card slots enhance reliability and flexibility for professional workflows. Its rugged, weather-sealed body supports demanding outdoor use. Versatile video recording capabilities allow for both still and high-quality cinematic productions.

Removing the optical low-pass filter can result in moiré patterns and false color artifacts in specific shooting conditions, which may require post-processing to correct. The very high-resolution files demand substantial storage space and processing power. The D800e’s autofocus, while robust, may be slower in live view mode and video autofocus. Battery life is moderate for a professional DSLR and may require carrying spares during extensive shoots. The camera’s weight and size make it less portable compared to mirrorless options. The lack of built-in Wi-Fi limits instant image sharing without additional accessories.
