I don&#8217;t really care about the tilting, vari-angle LCD and built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, but the higher fps (6.5 vs. 5.5 on the D600) and higher ISO capabilities with a slight decrease in weight look attractive. I use my D600 in the ISO 3200 &#8211; 6400 range a lot. I&#8217;m hoping I can obtain similar results to that range in the 6400-12800 range on the D750. The autofocusing system is also supposed to be much improved on the D750 compared to the D600. The D750 should be at least as good focusing as the focusing system found on the D810.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13354\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/nikkor-20mm-f1.8g.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13354\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/nikkor-20mm-f1.8g-800x648.jpg\" alt=\"Nikkor (Nikon) 20mm f\/1.8G lens\" width=\"800\" height=\"648\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/nikkor-20mm-f1.8g-800x648.jpg 800w, https:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/nikkor-20mm-f1.8g-250x202.jpg 250w, https:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/nikkor-20mm-f1.8g.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13354\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikkor (Nikon) 20mm f\/1.8G lens<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I have never been perfectly happy with my 14-24mm f\/2.8G lens or my 24mm f\/2.8D lens. The former is heavy and large; the latter isn&#8217;t great at f\/2.8. Photos at 14mm are always at least somewhat distorted and frequently very distorted. Because of that I don&#8217;t use my 14-24mm at 14mm very often anymore. <\/p>\n<p>After running some numbers I have determined that I can sell my D600, 14-24mm f\/2.8G lens, and 24mm f\/2.8D lens for about the same amount a new D750 and new <a href=http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00NI6WH1S\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957&#038;creativeASIN=B00NI6WH1S&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=rpcman&#038;linkId=3GZDKCUCLNHIT44F target=_new>20mm f\/1.8G lens<\/a> will cost so that is the plan. The 20mm f\/1.8G weighs a little more than the 24mm f\/2.8D, but much less than the 14-24mm f\/2.8G lens so I think I will be quite happy with that trade off despite losing some versatility in the ultra wide zoom.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also hoping to pick up a <a href=http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00HR6IZ5W\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957&#038;creativeASIN=B00HR6IZ5W&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=rpcman&#038;linkId=A67WEDUGF6K3VLK2 target=_new>Tamron 150-600mm VC Lens<\/a> soon. <\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in any of these three items of mine which are now for sale let me know.<\/p>\n<p>Nikon D600 in excellent condition with all of the original packaging and items it came with new including a brand new D610 shutter: $1,100<br \/>\nNikkor AF-S Zoom 14-24mm f\/2.8G ED AF Lens in excellent condition with original front and rear lens caps and pouch: $1,500<br \/>\nNikon AF Nikkor 24mm f\/2.8D Autofocus Lens in excellent condition with all of the original packaging and items it came with new: $250<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been very happy with my Nikon D600 the past two years.
