The announcement of Nikon`s new D780 demonstrates that the company hasn`t given up on DSLRs just yet. The successor to the D750 (which Nikon says is its best-selling full-frame camera) borrows heavily from the Z6 mirrorless camera, with a few things from the D5 as well.
The D780 features a 24.5MP BSI-CMOS sensor - likely the same as in the Z6 - which features on-sensor phase detection. That means that in live view you`ll get dramatically improved autofocus compared to previous Nikon DSLRs, plus face and eye detection. When shooting through the viewfinder you`ll have a 51-point AF system backed with the higher-resolution metering sensor and algorithms from the D5.
Burst shooting with continuous AF tops out at 7 fps, though it can hit 12 fps in live view silent shutter mode (when shooting 12-bit Raw files). The maximum shutter speed is 1/8000 sec, with an x-sync of 1/200 sec.
On the video side, the D780 can capture UHD 4K video at 30p with full-pixel readout. It supports 10-bit N-Log and HLG HDR output, and offers zebra stripes, focus peaking and more.
Lastly, there`s the body, which offers some nice improvements. It now sports a 3.2` tilting touchscreen, a USB Type C port with in-camera charging and twin SD card slots that support UHS-II media. As before, the D780 is rugged and weather-sealed.
The Nikon D780 will be available later this month for $2299 body only and $2799 with the 24-120mm F4G ED VR lens.
