Like every Nikon flagship camera that has come before it, the Nikon D6 Digital SLR Camera Body holds nothing back. Featuring Nikon's most powerful AF system to date for capturing every heart-pounding, pivotal moment, the D6 is an uncompromising workhorse that lives up to every professional demand in any environment. And because every second counts in the field, the D6 is loaded with new time-saving workflow enhancements and advanced customization options. The moments that define us, that show what we're capable of, the ones that live on, are waiting to be captured with a Nikon D6 DSLR.
FEATURES:
The most powerful AF in Nikon's history - The D6 breaks new ground in AF performance, outclassing the highly acclaimed AF system of its predecessor, the D5. A new high density, 105-point fully selectable, all cross-type sensor AF system, allows photographers to set focus almost anywhere in the frame without recomposing. A reimagined focus point layout reduces non-AF-sensitive areas with a triple sensor arrangement for each individual focus point resulting in 1.6x more AF coverage*, even with moving subjects in high speed shooting modes.
Precision focusing with 17 custom Group Area AF choices - For reliable subject acquisition around distracting foreground objects like a net, player or other obstacle, sports photographers will find the D6's 17 selectable group Area AF patterns indispensable.
Image quality that shines in any light - The stellar combination of the D6's high-resolution 20.8MP FX-format CMOS sensor and state-of-the-art EXPEED 6 image-processing engine enables class-leading ISO's up to 102,400 (expandable to ISO 3,280,000) for glorious image quality in the widest range of lighting conditions and shooting scenarios. The profound levels of sensitivity and resolution achieved by the D6 greatly reduce low light noise and improve AF detection over the D5.
Turbo-charged by EXPEED 6 - The D6 is powered by Nikon's fastest, most comprehensive image processing engine to date, EXPEED 6. It's the brains behind the camera's stunning photo and video quality, AF power, low-light performance, noise suppression, distortion control, image clarity, color reproduction and more.
Fast and reliable 14 fps continuous shooting - For capturing the most electrifying of moments during high speed sports and action, the D6 can shoot a remarkable 14 fps for up to 200 continuous shots at JPEG fine quality. Its beautifully clear optical viewfinder allows real-time confirmation of the composition while its highly dependable mechanical shutter eliminates any concern of banding or flickering at high speeds-crucial under professional environments where every moment matters.
Astounding 60 fps stills in video mode - While the D6's remarkable 14 fps speed may be more than enough for most action photography, the D6 is capable of shooting at an astonishing 60fps for digital applications where resolution may not be as critical. In movie live view mode, holding the shutter-release down can produce 2-megapixel images at approximately 60fps or 8-megapixel images at approximately 30fps for revealing minute differences during critical moments of action.
Silent when discretion counts - When camera noise can be a potential distraction, switching to Live View allows you to get every shot utilizing the D6's full 20.8MP at up to 10.5fps in complete silence.
Advanced scene recognition for intelligent exposure - Working in harmony with the D6's dedicated AF and EXPEED 6 image-processing engines, a 180K-pixel Advanced Scene Recognition System identifies various aspects of the scene and makes fine adjustments to ensure complete accuracy in auto exposure, autofocus, auto white balance and more.
A full range of F mount pro lenses - Renowned NIKKOR F lenses are praised by top professionals for their superior clarity and sharpness and are available for most every application-from ultra-wide-angle to super-telephoto. With astonishing image rendition for indoor events and low-light scenes, NIKKOR's lineup of fast super-telephoto lenses are indispensable for sports and wildlife photographers.
Built tough - The extremely robust and durable D6 is constructed with incredibly strong, yet remarkably lightweight magnesium alloy to stand up to the toughest professional demands while maintaining high electromagnetic-shielding and heat-emission performance. The shutter unit has been tested for 400,000 cycles.
Pro-grade weather sealing - Extensive sealing of joined sections ensures Nikon's most comprehensive resistance to dust and water droplets, designed to keep out the elements so photographers can continue to shoot with the utmost confidence.
Illuminated controls - Easily change camera settings in the dark with top and rear LCD control panels and buttons that illuminate with the flick of a lever.
The ultimate shape shifter - On fast-paced assignments, being ready for every critically decisive moment is paramount. With so many ways to customize settings and shortcuts, the D6 truly adapts to every workflow.
Instant access to presets - With recallable shooting functions, sports photographers can effortlessly switch between preset camera settings- great for events like track and field where dynamic-area AF may work best for some events while auto-area AF may be better for others.
Advanced customizations - The D6 has a total of 14 buttons that can be personalized with up to 46 different functions for quick, intuitive access to your favorite settings.
Intuitive i menu - The i button provides a shortcut to a wide selection of frequently used camera settings for speedy adjustments. The i menu can be customized to show the settings you use most-streamlining your workflow.
Save time by saving menu settings - Conveniently store and label up to four custom shooting combinations from the Custom Settings Menu and up to four from the Photo Shooting Menu for quick access in the i menu-a major time saver for rapidly-changing shooting environments.
High-resolution monitor with full touch control - Outfitted with a beautiful 2360k-dot high-resolution, fully touch-operable 3.2-inch LCD, interfacing with the D6 is as intuitive as using a smartphone.
Button-free image annotation, transfer and more - Inspired by pro feedback, images can be conveniently sent, protected or rated, voice memos can be added and images can be prioritized to skip the queue during large transfers by simply flicking upward or downward in full screen playback-especially useful when using the WT-6/A/B/C Wireless Transmitter.
Dual CFexpress card slots - The D6's dual, future-proof card slots are compatible with both CFexpress and XQD cards. Set them up for overflow, backup, separating RAW+JPEG or JPEG photos of different sizes. Files can be copied between cards or played back from either card.
Clear, lag-free optical viewfinder - The brilliant optical viewfinder in the D6 was designed for clear, real-time visibility with a natural, stress-free viewing experience under various lighting conditions, even during long hours of shooting.
Built-in GPS - When knowing the exact location a photo or video was taken is beneficial-nature and landscapes, astrophotography, photojournalism-the D6 can automatically record accurate location and time data and store it along with the image file.
