Nikon D600
Features newly developed 24.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor
Sophisticated video features help to increase the production value on
any project, including full manual control of exposure, and the ability
to switch between FX and DX-format (1.5X) at Full HD for a telephoto
boost and alter depth of field. Users can opt to focus manually or can
take advantage of the full-time AF while recording to help ensure faces
are in focus or track a moving subject. Additionally, videographers have
the ability to capture audio with the onboard microphone or record
stereo audio externally using the mic input. Audio can be monitored
through the headphone jack and levels can be displayed on the LCD with
peaking.
In addition to the ability to play back HD
video and images through the HDMI terminal, users are also able to
experience pro-grade video features in the Nikon D600. For monitoring
and streaming applications, the image can be displayed on the LCD screen
while simultaneously shown on another monitor through the HDMI, with or
without shooting data. What's more, the D600 adds the ability to
transfer uncompressed video via the HDMI connection, which can then be
routed to a digital recorder or similar device.
Remote Sharing and Capture
Photography is a form of expression, which can now be shared more ways
than ever before through social networks and online communities. To
accompany the D600, Nikon has also announced the optional WU-1b Wireless
Adapter that allows users to connect wirelessly to the camera. A
companion Wireless Mobile Adapter Utility application for Android™ based
mobile devices is also available at no additional cost. 1 Furthermore,
an application for the iPhone® and iPad® mobile digital devices will be
available on September 15, 2012.
When connected, users are able to share their images taken with the D600
through their mobile device to their social circles, as well as send
and download images from their camera to a compatible device.3 The
adapter also allows users to remotely fire the D600's shutter from up to
50 feet from the camera, which is ideal for capturing photos from
unique vantage points.
NIKKOR, Speedlight and System Compatibility
Supporting the D600 is Nikon's heritage in optical excellence, more than
70 NIKKOR AF and AF-S compatible lenses for maximum versatility. Those
with DX-format lenses will also be happy to know that these lenses can
also be used on the camera as well as the ability to set DX crop for
stills or video to extend the reach of telephoto or telephoto zoom
lenses.
