You bring up a lot of good points about buying a used DSLR in today’s climate. I think many people have rushed to mirrorless because it is the future. I know many of us want the latest and greatest shiny thing to play with, but sometimes you have to factor in what’s affordable. Thank you for sharing. Peace and Safe Travels.

I learned on a d70 and it taught me how much i dont need the newest gear, especially with Lightroom skills. My D800 is on the way right now!

[edwardekman]

Got my new z8, but will never sell my D700 or my D800.

Still use a D800 and a D3S professionally- I’ll ‘upgrade’ when they break.

I owned the D800 when it came out. It's a fantastic camera. I subscribed and liked. Looking forward to more from you.

Why not? If you only shoot images (no video), probably the D800 is the most affordable option ($1000 or less) that offers you 36MP. We don't have the mirrorless equivalent of the D800 within the same price range in used market, yet.

I don't understand your comment that a CF card is more fragile than an SD card...🙄 The CF card has always been regarded as way more robust and bullet-proof compared to the very small, fragile and thin bendy-plastic SD cards. The CF cards are generally much faster than SD cards, especially in their download speed. I would have preferred that the D800 had two Compact Fash card slots, but at least it has two slots, unlike the crazy single slots of the Z6 & Z7.

I still use my D800 for landscapes and studio shoots. I'll probably keep on using it for a few more years yet. I do have a mirror less Olympus system, but i always come back to my Nikon DSLR's.

I have D700 and D3 and looking to buy a D800 thanks for sharing your thoughts on the beauty of a camera subbed looking forward to seeing more of it

I download the photographs from my camera with a USB 3 cable so I never have to take out my CF card, nor the SD card, so I never worry about how fragile the CF card is, or breaking the pin connectors.

Thanks for your video! It’s exactly what I was looking for! I have a d3300 too (I have the 35mm, 50 and 85mm all 1.8) and looking to upgrade but since I have quite a low budget I checked on Facebook and located one for $650 dlls, has 10k shutter count, do you think is a good deal?

I’m not keen to go mirrorless. I don’t like looking in EVFs & the older top class ‘flagship’ bodies feel wonderful to pick up & shoot with. D700, D3S & D3X are my favourites. There’s no problem with image quality. 😊

I also bought one very recently and love it very much. Haven’t used a DSLR for 10 years after switching to mirrorless. Thank you for the info!

Awesome video!!! I still LOVE my D800 all these years later, and still shoot it. For me, it is the benchmark that I measure all other cameras against. I recently put up a video comparing the D800 to the Z9, same day, same light, same lens same subjects. I have used Sony, and had left Nikon for Canon but have come back to Nikon with the Z9. My old D800 is still and I shot it in the rain not but about a month ago. I wont shoot it over ISO 400. Fantastic video!! 🤗❤🙏

There must be 10, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 + “Is the D800 Still Worth It” videos out there. The answer is, YES!! Done!

[StephaneDesnault]

I was able to pick a used one up at 400Euros, for 34.000 actuations. My current camera is a D800E - I'm getting a great second camera, for merely the price of a mid-range speed light.

[Audimann]

Have the D800 and D800E and the last one is indeed a bit sharper. Got both second hand and the D800E had a few thousand clicks. Great!

[Barry]

Enjoyed the vid, but I think you could have illustrated some of your points by actually demonstrating on the camera.

[robbiehenderson]

The D800 has the best skin tones for all of Nikon cameras in my opinion.

[barbellmax]

Hi! Do you think is worth buying a D800E what take only SD-card because Flash Slot have demaged bent pins?
