lafilm Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hey guys, Just a head's up the new Nikon D750 is superior to the D810 for video. I saw proof of this in person. Sorry I cannot show you the footage. It wasn't mine and was used on an adult vid. Both cams were on the set. (D810 still better for stills - super large). On the video side, the D750 has zero moire/aliasing to speak of (you will find it on D810) and it has a flip lcd screen. It's just as sharp as the D810 (GH3 quality in 1080p but MUCH MUCH better colors!) and is 24 meg Full Frame. The lcd is sharp as hell. It has zebras, dedicated movie buttons and is lighter than D810. No peaking unfortunately but the zoom in for focus is real nice. Best of all is the low light. It's at least a stop and half over the D810. Compared them side by side. I saw some footage where 12,800 ISO looked good (great with neat video) and 6400 ISO looked damn near perfect. That's shocking for a Nikon dslr video. So you get one of the best still cameras in the world with perfect 1080p. (And yes it does 60 at 1080 and that looks fantastic as well. Could see no visible banding. In my opinion the D750 is just as pleasing as 5D raw but without the time involved. If you shoot stills and want high quality video it's something you should consider. If you only shoot stills go with the D810. For video DSLR it's a no brainer with native Nikor lenses. For mirrorless I would go A7s but if I'm 50% stills and don't need 4K, than I'm going DSLR Nikon. These dudes have upped their game. Big time. Just one man's opinion. Cheers Nikkor and mtheory 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they say porn can be on the forefront of tech but wow that's really fast; the camera's barely out for a day! Julian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafilm Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hey it's been available in LA for quite a while. This dude got his D750 over a month ago. Quite a few times camera stores in LA will have cams before their 'air date'. And yea there is still quite a bit of porn shot in the valley on DSLR's. As far as brand new tech, I'd say that porn producers use it faster than Hollywood. These dudes are on it and love money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted September 25, 2014 Administrators Share Posted September 25, 2014 Shot with both at Photokina and have the original files on my card if anyone wants them, I might upload. D750 and D810 were too similar to tell apart without a proper shoot and more time with them. Danyyyel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liork Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 This is a snapshot from a D750 video I shot on Nikon's booth in Photokina. You can judge the details level here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hey it's been available in LA for quite a while. This dude got his D750 over a month ago. Quite a few times camera stores in LA will have cams before their 'air date'. You are making this up. The D750 was announced on sept 12, images and final specs of the camera leaked out only a few days before. If it was out for a month already it would be all over the internet. Unless you are talking about people who have signed NDA's and receiving pre production cameras before the announcement for initial testing. But that list isn't very long and as far as I know dpreview, Imaging Resource and the likes aren't porn producers. leeys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeys Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Exactly - the local Nikon subsidary barely had their cameras for a fortnight, from what I could gather! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafilm Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Your naievity is laughable. If you believe that (which you do) it shows your ignorance. Move to LA and get connected. Explaining how things (like the film world) happen would take too much time in a post and the knowledge may make your brain explode. Andrew runs a cool site and occasionally I contribute or ask questions. There's a lot of things I don't know. I contributed on this particular thread because I saw it. I didn't see a Sasquatch, but I did see two cams. I could care less what you think (last time I'll ever respond to a idiotic post like this) however, I'll answer it this one time. Try to open your mind about something as trivial as a camera. I realize it may be difficult for someone like you. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, and yes, sometimes video, cams, equipment, films, etc..ad nauseum..get released far far sooner to certain people than what/when 'they' announce when it will be available to the common man. AKA- YOU. Pornography makes more money than Hollywood movies and video games combined. It's a multi-billion dollar a year industry. The dudes involved are super rich and they make shit happen. And they're far from the only ones. Decadence and money rule this city. Deal with it. Just because little guys like you have to wait for B&H to get a cam in, doesent mean some other dude out in the west coast wasn't already using that same cam 2 months earlier videotaping himself getting a blow job by a hot teen-age model. Your life is obviously quite different. Too bad for you. Sorry to bust your bubble with the truth. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Nice rant. You don't know anything about me. Looks more like you are the one convinced of your own truth. What you are stating - the camera being available in shops since a month - is simply impossible. Proof or it didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inazuma Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 BTW lafilm, what lenses do they use for porn? dahlfors, graphicnatured, sudopera and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeys Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I still don't get it - you mean a porn production was so desperate to get a Nikon D750 they'd pony up the extra money for what is likely to be an engineering sample? Even in porn, I'm sure they're professionals, and which pro would take a risk on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafilm Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 It was actually shot with the brand new Canon XL1 ! Have no idea how I could have made that mistake! Maybe in the future the sensors will get better..I'm hoping so by 1998 Haha :P Hey Andrew, too bad you don't have the tech to make everyone take an IQ test (and pass the level of a sheep) before they can post...shocking how many idiots live on planet Earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Hughes Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 What is it about new cameras that has such a magical power to transform professional filmmakers into arrogant, bratty children? It's incredible, really. leeys and sudopera 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyyyel Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Shot with both at Photokina and have the original files on my card if anyone wants them, I might upload. D750 and D810 were too similar to tell apart without a proper shoot and more time with them. Yes it would be really nice. I am leaning a lot to get this camera mainly for video and replace my D7100. I am a little anxious because I have seen videos of the D800 which is very sharp to my eyes and it would be big disappointment if the D750 is not the same rez. You never know with these companies, for example the D7100 is very sharp compared to the D5200 even if they share the same sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
