Introduction $(document). ready(function() { SampleGalleryStripV2({"galleryId":"0351099733","isMobile":false}) }) All product photography by Dan Bracaglia 87%Overall scoreJump to conclusion The Nikon D780 is a replacement for the D750, one of the most well-rounded DSLRs ever made.
It's still built around a 24MP sensor and 51-point AF system but the more you dig in, the more you discover it's a much more capable machine: a DSLR that's learned a lot from mirrorless.
Many aspects of the camera's behavior, including autofocus, video performance and interval shooting have been significantly improved, bringing a lot of the Z6's capabilities to Nikon's venerable F-mount.

24. 5MP BSI CMOS full-frame sensor with on-sensor phase detection
7 frame per second shooting (12 fps in 12-bit electronic shutter mode)
UHD 4K capture at up to 30p from the full width of the sensor
51-point AF module supported by 180,000 pixel RGB metering sensor
273 point on-sensor PDAF in live view (sensitive to -4 EV)
3. 2", 2. 36M-dot touchscreen

10-bit video output over HDMI
