The Nikon D610 DSLR Camera features a full-frame, FX-format24.3 megapixel CMOS sensor and EXPEED 3 image processor toproduce high-resolution still imagery and full HD 1080p videowith notable image detail and low-light sensitivity to anexpandable ISO 25600. The sensor and processor work together toenable high image quality with a wide dynamic range and highsignal-to-noise ratio that produces both smooth color and tonalgradations with low noise levels for enhanced overall clarity.These two technologies also combine to provide a wealth ofspeed throughout the D610, including a continuous shooting rateof 6 fps and a quiet shooting mode that allows the camera torecord sequential imagery without the mirror raising orlowering.
A Multi-CAM 4800 AF sensor is integrated into the camerasdesign and produces fast autofocus speeds using a 39-pointarray to precisely acquire focus in a wide array of lightingconditions. Seven of the central AF points are compatible withf/8 or faster lenses, which greatly enhances the autofocusperformance with longer, telephoto lenses used in combinationwith teleconverters. When recording movies or working in liveview, a contrast-detection focusing method works tocontinuously deliver accurate focus with subject-tracking andface-detection capabilities using the full-time servo mode.
Full HD 1080p video is supported up to 30 fps in the MPEG-4AVC/H.264 format and manual control over the ISO, shutterspeed, and aperture is possible for optimized control over thelook and feel of movies. Uncompressed recording is possiblewith an optional external recorder connected via the HDMI portand, additionally, both headphone and microphone ports areavailable for refined control over recorded sound.
Extending the D610s connectivity, an accessory terminal iscompatible with the optional WU-1b Wireless Mobile Adapter andGP-1A GPS Unit for wireless image sharing, remote cameracontrol, and geotagging capabilities.
