When I switched from film to digital (after 30 years), I wanted a full-frame camera to be able to use all my old Nikon lenses. I am married to the Nikon "F" lens mount. At the bottom of the Nikon FF DSLR food chain lies the D600, I bought it as a "learner" camera, and am truly delighted with my purchase. The one I bought is sort of a "D605," having the new shutter. It focuses quickly; gets the exposure correct; produces excellent images, in both JPEG and RAW. My main complaint (and thus 4 stars) is the complexity of the menu system. Fortunately, the camera has only one Fn button, and I shoot exclsively in aperture mode, so I'm avoiding much of the complexity (and probably capability) of the camera. My other, and lesser, complaint is the difficulty the camera has working with old lenses. Yes, there's a setup for non-CPU lenses, but it's problematic. All in all, a very decent camera for newbies like me.Read full review

Just slightly larger than my D7000, the D600 Fx (full-frame) feels virtually the same to shoot. The image quality is very good. I purchased it with a single job in mind - copying 35mm negatives and slides using a T-Mount "Slide Duplicator" from the 1970s that I had in my closet. I had used it with the crop sensor D7000 with good results but the limited sensor size meant that many images had to be stitched together if I wanted the entire 35 mm frame to be visible. The full sized sensor on the D600 means a single exposure would encompass the entire frame. The D600 HDR mode works perfectly in conjunction with the slide duplicator. My transfers are very good. It turned out exactly as I had hoped. See the two example transfers. I recently had an opportunity to use it along side my D7000 while on vacation. The image quality is virtually identical but the extra field of view afforded by the D600 made it an obvious choice for anything I wanted to shoot with a wider angle. I used the D7000 for telephoto shots. As the pixels per degree of FOV is the same between the two when using the same lenses this seemed to work out in a very natural way. The only facet where the D7000 seemed better was in raw frame rate when shooting action pictures. It is about one frame per second faster than the D600. Read full review

The High Iso performance of this camera is fantastic -- better than my D3s but with more resolution. Much has been written about the 39 focus points but I generally only use a single focus point and had no issues in low light. Image quality is wonderful. I have shot football under the lights, hockey, lacrosse and nature with this camera. After getting the shutter replaced right away I have had no oil spot issues. Battery life is great and it does have a focus motor which makes it compatible with lots of lenses. Dynamic range is very good. Don't be afraid to buy this camera used -- as long as it is not grey market Nikon will replace the shutter.

I purchased the D600 as a second camera to my D750. I often have a 24-120mm zoom on the D750, and I wanted to have an 85mm fixed lens on a second body for candid portraits. The D600 was almost half the cost of the D750. The image quality looks the same, and the D600 focuses a bit slower, but this isn't a issue for portraits. Importantly, both cameras work well with the Nikon CLS remote flash control system, and I use them with 3 SB-700 flashes. I can use the built-in flash on either camera to control the remote SB-700s, without reconfiguring them in any way.

Moving up from a D300 (DX sensor) to D600 (Fx sensor) Images are sharper, viewfinder seems brighter. Will take a while to get used to the different control layout, the D300 was particularly easy to use with direct access focusing/metering controls. The shutter on the D600 is quieter, the inbuilt interval timer is handy. Unfortunately the battery is different, so I have to carry two styles of batteries, that look the same but have different connectors. Camera was well packed, arrived in near mint condition...a bit of paint on a couple of control buttons had rubbed off, but that doesn't matter. Great camera and discount price.
