  • Nikon Df Overview

 

The Df combines intuitive dial operation with the feel of a precision instrument and superior image quality in the smallest and lightest body in the history of Nikon FX-format digital SLR cameras, making the camera extremely portable. Offering an effective pixel count of 16.25-million pixels, and equipped with the combination of FX-format CMOS sensor and EXPEED 3 image-processing engine, the Df offers stable, superior image quality under a wide variety of lighting conditions. It supports a broad range of standard sensitivities, from ISO 100–12800, with additional reduction to the equivalent of ISO 50 and expansion to the equivalent of ISO 204800. Large metal mechanical dials provide a system that allows users to focus on shooting with the security that comes from visual confirmation of settings such as ISO sensitivity, shutter speed, and exposure compensation values, as well as the convenience of direct adjustment of settings at any time, even when the camera is turned off.
