Nikon Introduces the Full Frame FX-Format Sensor DSLR D600

Nikon announces the full frame DSLR D600 on Sept. 12, 2012.  A FX-format camera with a body smallest and lightest among FX-format cameras that offers excellent basic performance and a 24.3-megapixel image sensor for superior imaging performance.
  • FX-format CMOS image sensor with an effective pixel count of 24.3-million pixels
  • Same EXPEED 3 image-processing engine built into high-end Nikon D-SLRs (D4, D800, D800E) for superior definition and image quality.
  •  ISO 100 to ISO 6400
  •  FX-format digital SLR lineup with a smaller size and lighter weight–approx. 141 (W) x 113 (H) x 82 (D) mm, body weight 760 g
  • D600 inherits a number of advanced features from its high-end cousins, including an optical viewfinder with frame coverage of 100%*2, a large and clear, 3.2-inch LCD monitor with a wide viewing angle for superior visibility, and the same dust- and water-resistance as the D800 and D800E.
  • Full-HD movie recording (1920 x 1080/30p)
  • High-speed continuous shooting at approximately 5.5 fps
  • Built-in flash that covers the angle of view of a wide-angle 24-mm lens and has a guide number of approximately 12/39 (m/ft, ISO 100, 20°C/68°F). 
  • Shutter unit that has passed testing for approximately 150,000 cycles,
  • The Nikon D600 will be available on September 18, 2012 for the suggested retail price (SRP) of $2,099.95, for body only, or with the AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR for the SRP of $2,699.95.
