HiHi guys
Made the purchase this evening
With my tamron lens’s i used for my d3300, would i need to do any setting change in the d600? Or just put on and enjoy?
Thanks
They are both full frame lenses so fill yer boots.
just bear in mind that the field of view will change quite dramatically.
??Will i not got no effects of the FF phil? Not even the better iso performance etc? Cheers
There won't be any.With you, will the vignetting be really bad?
There won't be any.
@Damo88 - welcome to the world of the D600/610, both of which are really good cameras. I made the change from D300 to D600 and was amazed at the difference in image quality - I think you will have a similar experience I now have the D610, which is basically the same camera as the D600 but with a different shutter mechanism - see below. Your existing lenses will work just fine and should give you some stunning images - enjoy
Something to be aware of is that the D600 has a tendency to spit bits of dark material onto the sensor. Not all of them do it (and I hope yours doesn't) but quite a high percentage do and I was unlucky. It was the only complaint I had about the D600. There is a Nikon service recall for this problem and if you send it to them for cleaning often enough (mine went back 3 times in less than 3 months) they will eventually replace it with a nice shiny D610.
There is a D600/610 thread on here somewhere but we are a bit thin on the ground so it doesn't see as much traffic as some of the more popular bodies. That's as much my fault as anyone elses
What Phil means is that the D600 has a significantly wider field of view than the D3300 so your wider angle lens will "see" more of the scene and your telephoto will have less apparent reach. It's actually the D3300 that has been effectively vignetting by cutting off the edges of what the lens can see. Have a look on Google for Crop Factor.
Thank you for your reply, thats brill, did you have any issues with nikon and how long did they keep the camera for? If i did get issues is it an easy process to go through?
Thanks
Actually Nikon Service are quite geared up to dealing with the D600 problem and you can book the service work on their web site. They will collect the camera from you, do the clean and deliver it back again all free of charge. With mine, I was without it for about 10 days for both the first and second times but for the third time I had to wait 2 weeks for them to send the replacement. I got to know a couple of their agents quite well as they would call to give me an update on progress almost every other day.
Hopefully though, you won't have the problem

the chap said it had been to Nikon due to this issue previously however since having it back the issue hasn't returned. ive taken plenty of images with it the other day with no issues of the common problem, ive just sent Nikon an email to see if I can give them the serial number of the camera to see if it has been back and what was done.
the camera has 21k shutter counts, its a fabulous camera im in love with it , I know I cant compare my D3300 to it but boy its bloody good.
Which isn't just a function of sensor size - those models were introduced I think about 5 yrs apart, and the technology had marched on. The main benefit wasn't that the mpx count had expanded, but rather that when setting your exposure with the later camera, you could protect your highlights whilst being able in processing to pull stuff back from the shadow end if needed without so much of a noise hit.I made the change from D300 to D600 and was amazed at the difference in image quality
Supposedly, the problem (mainly) only affected the first 1500 shutter actuations, though it did seem to affect some cameras a bit more than that, and some bodies were not affected.
Personally, I never had an issue with mine
Surely you knew this before you bought it?That is great to know,for some reasonAs expected it seems to achieve more background blurr easyier, everything about it just seems better
