Upcoming Full Frame Camera Will Be Called the D750

Re: D750 specs

Wasn't it rumored to be a sports camera, wish it had a higher fps (maybe around 8 ) o well , still should be a great camera .
will for sure be on my short list. 810 vs 750

From what I understand, pixel density plays a role in whether or not the sensor has an OLPF. There must be a threshold Nikon uses to determine this.

Re: D750 specs

I see that so many of my fellow Nikonites are convinced that the removal of the OPLF filter is necessary to all new models. Everyone raves that it means sharper pictures. I can not access that because I do not have a camera without one. But my concern is that the filter is there to serve a necessary function. Now if the new sensors do eliminate the problems that that filter addressed, fine and good. But if we are just adding a new post processing step to eliminate those same problems then I am not ready to switch.
Those of you more knowledgable about this issue need to advise us who do not know.
I was quickly convinced removing the OLPF had a dramatic improvement on overall image quality but it's hard to make a direct comparison because Nikon doesn't have, say, a D7100 model with an OLPF we could compare to a D7100 without an OLPF. However, Nikon users are not the only ones who suffer with the OLPF dilemma. I ran across an article where a frustrated Canon-user actually performed "surgery" on his 5D MKIII to remove the imbedded OLPF. At last... A perfect "Before and After" comparison: same exact camera both with and without the presence of the OLPF. I think his before and after photos speak for themselves.

A Drastic Solution to Increasing Sharpness With the 5D MKIII.

At some point Nikon should have published or expressed a rationale for the removal of OPLF filter. Does anyone know where I could find that. Their literature should certainly mention it somewhere.

It kinda reads like the specs we have been wishing had been on the D600/D610. Sounds like someone may have been listening. To the OPLF....I get the feeling they may have left it in there so as not to steal D810 sales. Since I believe that may be one of the key points of the D810 and what may set the bar for their *Pro* line.

Re: D750 specs

didnt like the D600 IQ so much. especially the WB and colors it produced. over iso 4000 wasnt great. hope the tweaked it. if they can do a drastic change from the D3 to D3s then maybe they can with this.
6.5fps..meh. would have liked 8. well see.

biggest plus I see is aperture control in live view mode with video. why they frik did they disable it in the first place...
and I hope they upgraded the auto WB system.

The comparison can be done between D3200 and D3300.

Re: D750 specs

That same question has been rolling around in my mind as well... If the OLPF has been removed, that will be a big selling point for me.
I'm also thinking if it *had* been removed (or will be), we'd have heard about it... And we haven't.

*shrug*

.....

Lack of an OLPF only works at certain pixel sizes. A 24MP full sized sensor will become a moire minefield without it. It's that simple. After getting a D7100 and seeing that IR conversion facilities where now offering the removal I did a lot of research. A LOT. 36MP's on an FX and 24MP's on a DX is about where the doable line is drawn. Nikon's been at the forefront of getting rid of them and I fully expect that if the physics allowed for it they would have done it.

Re: D750 specs

With that being said, I would hope the D7500, if that's the correct name for the new faster camera will hopefully have a 36 mp sensor, and no OLPF. I'm just dreaming as I know Nikon won't package so much goodness in a D7500 camera. More likely a 24 MP sensor, and no full frame goodness.

Re: D750 specs

Isn't there a ready comparison between the D800 & D800e?

Nikon D800 vs D800E
This did the best job of clarifying it in my mind. THANKS @Gorf for that. it seems you need one body with the filter and one without for different shooting situations. For those that can afford that, fine. i will have to stick to my D7000 for a while. I will console myself with Cartier-Bresson's famous line "Sharpnes is a bourgeoisie concept."

D7500?! Are you saying a 36MP DX camera? You do realize that pixel size would equate to an 80MP FX camera, right? You know how absurdly expensive that would be if they could actually build it, right? No, I didn't think you did.

Now, if you accidentally typed an extra '0' then you do realize that they already make the camera you're talking about - the D800e/D810. You just need to pay for those pixels.

No, I meant a 36 mp FX camera that would be the D7500. And have real fast speeds. I mean realistically, I need a Vitamin C fix (caffeine). So.....let me pose this question. What do you think the specs will be for the D7500? If that's what it ends up being called? And then, what I mean is what specific areas do you think the next camera will improve on given that it will probable be spec'd between the D610 and the D7100? I think it'll really be a newer D7100 which would make it a DX camera....and you're saying it really can't go higher in MP's, so my guess is it'll finally throw in useless apps like GPS and the more useful built in wi-fi. A little faster fps, and that's what I envision. And no OLPF.

It makes sense to me that the D750 (not D7500) will be full frame, but with a 24mp sensor. I'm not sure that 36mp would make sense for an "action" camera. A 36mp sensor is pretty expensive to make, which feeds through to the cost of the DSLR.
