Specs

24MP BSI CMOS sensor by Sony (again being promoted as Nikon own :-) )
Due to slightly rehashed but old LSI video will be bad - 4K 24fps, 25fps and 30fps, 1080p 24-120fps, 30 min limits on all modes
Improved AF for video (but still very far behind Canon)
10-bit output with N-Logs or HDR support,
No built-in flash, as Nikon dream about record profit in this segment
51 AF points when shooting through the optical viewfinder, 15 cross-type AF sensor
273 AF points found in the Nikon Z 6 when shooting in Live View mode, covers 90 percent of the frame
Eye-Detection AF for real-time tracking,
7fps at full resolution with shutter speeds up to 1/8000
Up to 12fps shooting without shutter noise using the electronic shutter in Live View
2x UHS-II SD memory cards
Not very high 3.2″ 2.1Mdots articulated LCD with touchscreen
Interface and lot of code will be used from Z series, as Nikon no longer have developers enough for separate DSLR lineup software
Focus peaking, zebra stripes, interval timer, and in-camera time-lapse mode
Raw shooting speed improved around 30%
Slightly smaller and lighter, cheaper construction
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, old again, no ax or ac.
Quite small Nikon EN-EL15b battery battery
USB Type C charging

The D780 is a new kind of DSLR camera that harnesses both Nikon’s legacy in DSLR expertise and new innovative mirrorless technology to offer an unbeatable combination of versatility and agility for both photographers and videographers.

Trade in any working camera, from any brand, starting Monday, February 3 through Sunday, March 29, 2020, and save $300 on the much-anticipated Nikon D780, in addition to your camera’s trade-in value.* The limited time offer is valid for both the camera body-only and lens kit configurations at Nikon authorized dealers or through the Nikon Store.

The recently announced Nikon D780 breaks boundaries of what’s possible in a DSLR camera; it’s a capable companion that’s equally at home in the hands of an enthusiast, pro photographer or content creator. Whether capturing landscapes, weddings, astro-landscapes, sports or as part of a production in 4K UHD, the D780 combines the best of the renowned reliability of Nikon’s legendary DSLR cameras with the innovative AF technology of the new mirrorless Z series to be the best of both worlds. While retaining the benefits of a DSLR such as extended battery life and an optical viewfinder, the D780 adds advanced autofocus capabilities for video and live view, silent shooting and extensive new video features, to exceed expectations for any creative endeavor.

Our interview

Basically the D780 it's like a D750 with 1/8000 shutter speed, no flash, no AF assist lamp, no vertical grip option, basic video features with Z6 equivalent PDAF (that everyone has nowadays), at a staggering 2300$/2500 eu.

If you care about video then the D780 is a MASSIVE LEAP FORWARD from the D750

Plus lots of casual shooters are holding their cameras in front of them using live view rather than OVF, and in this area as well the D780 is a huge huge improvement over the D750

Can't without endangering sources.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev "I hear some true stories of Panasonic top managers discussions about their horrible selling FF lineup, they are beyond any limits."

I'd be very curios to hear such stories, can you please share some?

Vitaliy_Kiselev

@Eno

They are not worried, as top management of all companies decoupled from reality.

I hear some true stories of Panasonic top managers discussions about their horrible selling FF lineup, they are beyond any limits.

Eno

@Vitaliy_Kiselev

Nikon is the one that should be worried cause with those prices they will have close to 0 sales. :)

Howdy, Stranger!
