Nikon's Df is a pro camera with creative users in mind. The dials, numbers, and overall design of the body hark back to different era, but they provide tactile control that is welcomed in this age of buttons and menus. The sensor is full frame, the speed...
As we noted at the start of this review, the Nikon Df is unlike any other digital camera there has ever been. Consequently, it isn't a ‘conventional' D-SLR. It seems that many reviewers have been tying themselves in knots trying to make the Df fit into Ni...
Fullframe sensor, Small body, Traditional controls, Weatherproof
'Only' 16MP, No video recording, Expensive
The Df is a strangely indulgent camera. It's far too expensive to be an impulse purchase for most and there are better options available for professionals. A professional is more likely to go for the better-specified D4 or, if they want to save money or ...
As someone who began their 'serious' photography with a Nikon SLR (the esteemed Nikon F), I should have been a prime target for the Df. And despite being put off by that depressing teaser video, on initial acquaintance I did warm to the camera's tradition...
Compatibility with non-AI lenses. Fantastic shutter sound. D4 image quality without the price tag. Excellent low-light and high ISO performance

Amazing low-light capability, Love those dials, Excellent stills, Compatible with older Nikkor lenses
Too darn expensive, No video or Wi-Fi, Images dreadful at ISO 204,800
The Nikon Df is a mixed bag. We really wanted to love this camera, but sometimes memories are best left in the past. Given the price, the Df will appeal to the super rich who can afford such gadgets, and a very small group of photographers who are happy...
Abstract: We've got a retro-round up of cameras this week, but they're not as old as they look. In fact, Nikon's £1,654 DF is a full-frame, modern day 16.2-Megapixel snapper that shoots top-notch images to go with its classic styling - but can it compete with th...
