Field Testing the Nikon D810 Under the California Desert’s Star-Filled Skies

by Michael Bonocore June 22, 2016
written by Michael Bonocore June 22, 2016

DPReview once again gives us photographers a real life field test that actually shows us how new cameras handle the conditions we may use them in. As an Astro-obsessed photographer, their latest field test of the Nikon D810 and D810A had my interests immediately.

To test the D810,  Nikon’s highest resolution DSLR, and it’s D810A brother, which was specially designed to capture astrophotography, DPReview enlisted the help of José Francisco Salgado.

Being both an astronomer and a photographer, Salgado is a great choice to put these workhorse cameras to the test. The team headed out to the famed deserts of Souther California.

The images that Salgado captured are phenomenal, sharp and clean. But hear his thoughts on the camera and watch how he used the Nikon flagship on DPReview.

Follow DPReview on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
