The Nikon D780 is a versatile DSLR excelling in both photography and video applications. This sensor also enables a wide sensitivity range from ISO 100-51200, which can be expanded to ISO 50-204800, along with a quick 7 fps shooting rate with the viewfinder or 12 fps in live view. Full HD recording up to 120 fps is available, too, along with integrated N-Log Gamma and HLG settings for refined color control. When working in live view or recording video, a 273-point Hybrid AF system is used that blends on-sensor phase-detection points and a contrast-detection system for quick performance and excellent subject tracking, including support for Eye-Detection AF.
Dual UHS-II SD memory card slots offer flexible storage and built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth also enable wireless file transferring along with remote camera control from a mobile device. For working with moving subjects, a 7 fps continuous shooting rate is available when using the optical viewfinder, but when working in Silent Live View mode, up to 12 fps shooting is possible in raw or JPEG. This system is sensitive down to -3 EV and also features 15 cross-type points for even greater accuracy in low-contrast situations.
UHD 4K recording is possible using either the full-frame area or a DX crop area in 30p, 25, or 24p frame rates, and Full HD 1080p video recording is also supported at up to 120p for slow-motion playback. Other additions are the ability to output high-quality 10-bit data over HDMI and an Electronic VR function for smooth handheld shooting. Audio recording can be handled using the built-in stereo microphone or an optional external mic can be added via the 3.5mm stereo jack for greater control over the quality, and live monitoring is possible via the headphone jack.
This helps to achieve fast and accurate focusing performance for both stills and video and also avails sophisticated subject-tracking technologies, including Eye-Detection AF. The large 3.2" 2.36m-dot rear LCD screen features a tilting design to suit working from high and low angles. It is also a touchscreen and affords intuitive control over playback, menu navigation, and touch AF and touch shutter functions. Dual SD memory card slots both support the UHS-II standard for fast read/write speeds and enable more flexible file storage, such as overflow recording and in-camera file duplication.
The information gathered is also checked against onboard reference images to ensure consistency from image to image in regard to exposure, white balance, i-TTL flash settings, and subject-tracking AF performance.
Included with the camera body is the versatile AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR zoom, which covers an array of oft-used focal lengths, ranging from wide-angle to telephoto, and features a constant f/4 maximum aperture for consistent performance throughout the zoom range. Two extra-low dispersion elements and three aspherical elements are integrated into the optical design to reduce aberrations and distortions and improve contrast, clarity, and color fidelity. Additionally, multi-layered Super Integrated and Nano Crystal Coatings have also been applied to lens elements to minimize flare and ghosting for optimized light transmission.
