I just had my broken D600 replaced by a D610 and now need a new good value prime lens. Is the 50mm f1.8g up for the job on full frame?
Yes, it's excellent.

Good price for a great camera.Just recently bought a 2nd hand d610 with under 4,000 click for less than £600. Was ideally going to get a d750- but this seemed like a steal.
I've been thinking the same, so any comments would be greatly appreciated.I was about to sell my D610 and get a D750. The grey price at Panamoz is quite tempting. Holding off as I don't do much of action or sports shooting and well pleased with the D610 images.
Anyone here who upgraded to D750? What do you guys think of the improved AF and other features?
My D600 has gone back for third time for a "clean" hopefully get a nice new replacement, but not holding out though! Probs end up selling it as I've now got the D750

I have a D600 and am thinking on upgrading to the 750 . Not really bothered about the AF improvements as I don't shoot fast moving stuff. I'm happy with the low light performance of the D600 and love the size of it. What could tempt me ?
Honestly the improvement in AF coverage is probably more important than the speed of it, the D600 AF unit comes from a crop camera and covers a tiny area.
Plus the D750 has much better metering which helps get exposures right, and the raws seem to be able to recover a bit more low light detail than the D600
Looking good Andy It's a great feeling when you open the box to see a brand new D610
Hoping to get a new D610 at some point, but my D600 with shutter replacement isn't really that bad to be honest.
I'm in the same boat as you but I never shoot video which the D750 is better at plus I'm not over impressed with the tilt screen on the D750 they should have made it a full swivel screen.I was about to sell my D610 and get a D750.

I think I'll just wait until the D750s comes along as the images off my D610 are very good.
Have you used the D750? Will be glad to hear your views on the comparison - more on shooting convenience and feature benefits.as IQ is sameI got so fed up with my D600 I went and bought the d750 so now got the choice to keep the d610 or sell it as they are very close in spec and not sure if I need both! Would be good as a main camera and use the d750 as backup or vis versa!!
I know the AF system and processor are better but for my use (just images) I can't justify the upgrade even though the D750 is now under £1000.00Thanks, posts like this makes me think again as I am perfectly happy with the images I am getting and it appears the IQ is almost same when shooting raw. To sell the D610 and buy the D750 I will have to invest around £260 extra buying grey from Panamoz. I can't afford and won't buy the UK stock D750 at full price as I'd have to shell out almost £800 more to get some added benefits.

SWMBO is already not happy with my move to FX as the lenses costs a lot. I have downsized my lenses to only 3 now which covers most of my needs as follows
1. 24-85 VR - Walkabout and travel lens. find it excellent with fantastic sharpness in center and good around corners.
2. 85 F1.8G - My portrait lens and it is all that I need
3. 70-200 F4 VR - The lens is great and sharp and so far I have shot some landscape, buildings and portrait. So far this is my least used lens and the most expensive.
I am considering the 35 F1.8 as the only other lens I might need for street photography.
Adding another £250 for a new D750 may not sound wild, but have already spent a lot. New gear is great but it often turns into too much GAS
I really wish it was that simple but the next time I get that feeling I'll head straight for the medical cabinet.I use Andrews Liver salts and its cured all my Gas
If I had an offer like that I wouldn't need to think about it. PULL THE TRIGGER!Dark side calling. I have been offered £700 for my 8 month old D610 that came as a replacement from Nikon as my D600 turned out dusty.
With Panamoz price at £968 for a D750, not sure if I can resist the upgrade.
