Wow, the D780 is a beast! How awesome! Thank you for another awesome review. One day maybe after this hump in life for us all then I could try out the D780 for myself. I am in love with Nikon's tech, they have done a superb job on all of their cameras. Thanks again brother! Always on top my friend!
I’m not sure how important a view finder for video is. The small camcorders I’ve owned in the past all had screens. And my current travel bridge camera, canon G3X, has no view finder. Having said that most of the video I have taken is indoors, predominately and stage events.
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto A73 does - it would have been really nice if the D780 did. PS - I never knew you could use D-lighting in video because I saw it in the photo tab and not in the video tab. Thanks for the info.
It took me almost 2 years to finally accept the fact that I needed a new camera. So so many sources were indicating toward moving towards mirrorless and I almost did (the z6/7 look interesting but I just wasn't sold on the size), but then I saw your video and you helped me realize I should go with my gut and I pulled the trigger on getting the D850 and even that 35mm lens you mentioned. I'm actually excited about upgrading and the odd anxiety I felt about it is finally dissipating lol
A little tip for making home made chips or even fires. You want to blanch your chips or fries in the oil at 200 degrees first for about five minutes and then let dry. Almost like a par cook. Then you want to fry your product at 350/400 for an even crispy cook all the way through.
Would love to see a comparison of each of those cameras again now that you have played around with the Nikon Z6 ii to see how they compare. Recently purchased a D750 to start photography with. In the future when I need a second camera I'm wondering if it's worth it to have the Z6 ii and all new lenses, or just get the D780 and be able to only use that one type of lens. My thinking would be to do hybrid coverage in the future once we're comfortable with doing just photography for weddings.
Courses are only during the month of april sadly. I can’t enable downloads on my course system. Some of the courses are on Patreon though so they’ll remain there as long as you’re a member
Even tho it doesn’t track the eye through the viewfinder it does track the face in auto area af and group area af as long as the eye/face detection feature is on.
Taylor, now that the z6II is released how do you think the D780 compares? I am leaning towards D780 from my D750 because I want to dabble in video. What would you recommend?
Their mirrorless series is for sure the future of the brand. So I’d push you towards that if possible. If you don’t need 2 card slots the original Z6 is even more of an awesome deal now, and pretty much as good as the Z6ii in most ways
Great job keeping the content fresh during The Rona :) We love your channel, my 8 yr-old, too. So at 8:32 -- Minor nit-picky point -- the D780 is compatible with (ai) lenses made since 1977. Pre-ai lenses (1959~1977) would have to undergo ai conversion. Trying to forcefully mount an unconverted, non-ai lens would damage the mount. The only Nikon DSLR able to mount unmodified 1959 lenses is the Nikon DF, I believe.
Great Video! (As always) Do you use the electronic stabilisation in the D780? In combination with the Tamron VC lenses? It causes a little crop but it works well I think.
have a D750 and decided to purchase the D780. Well I can say it is a fabulous camera - it fixes all the annoying issues with the D750 and adds great integration and the Snap Bridge software to my Sony XZ2 is awesome - the camera is nearly as easy to use as my Sony smart phone. The touch screen is excellent and fast. Uploading images - great - the 2MB limit for JPEGs is perfect for social posting. The buffer issues are gone - I purchased 300mb/ 100mb cards. Nikon have done excatly the right thing for me. I have a few FX F mount lens - 24-70 f2.8 VR2, 85mm 1.8g, 20mm 1.8g. So did not want to have to replace those. The Z6 looks super exciting and its firmware is getting better - the Z6 is a bit 'small' in my hands. The D780 tethers nicely to Darktable and has new wireless options. So for me its an excellent upgrade and a pleasure to use
I find that with those tamron lenses (and any of the nikon lenses with proper VR) it's the same as IBIS, if not better in most cases.(When compared to the Z6, or the A7iii IBIS with a lens with no stabilization) I'm trying to figure out a way to quantify these results for a video but I have no idea how
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto hmm weird. Well the videos on my channel are with a d810 and the tamron vc primes....i just think MAYBE the ibis in z6 would be better?
Just watched this great video I'm torn between the d780 and a z6ii. With my f glass I'm leaning a little more to the d780. Btw boags definetly is and I think strongbow as well are from here in Australia which would make sense Antarctica
Also, regarding temperature units, in Windsor, since we're so close to the USA, most people use F in the summer and C in the winter. I was pretty old when I realized why there was a such a large gap in the temperature numbers
So I came here bc Ive been using mirrorless (sony and fuji) for the past 5+ years but I cant help but miss my Nikon D610. The reason is bc the images to me seems more pleasing. There was an organic feel to portraits whereas my mirrorless cameras seem to be far too sharp and sterile. Im really considering getting the D780 specifically bc of this. I also miss the OVF bc the EVF just feels like a screen and I prefer a real image. Am I the only one that thinks this way?
THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! I'm an old-school camera dude shhooting with a dependable D750 that's about ready to be relegated to back-up status! So now I'm looking at the D780 and D850, but the price is prohibited...I know, I know, I should be looking at the Mirrorless Z systems, HELP! :) HG from Chicago
I was thinking of adding a Z6 to my D750, but I can see the advantages of one camera like D780, where at the flip of a switch you can go from video to photo and back with saving custom settings in U1 or U2 or video settings separately. Time to rethink: D780 vs. Z6. All depends on how much video you do if in camera stabilizer makes sense in z6. Thanks for giving us this video to see what D780 can do. I will likely sell off my 80D and Canon lenses to get one or the other. I have many Nikon lenses so staying with Nikon mainly works best.
All I know is in photo mode my D750 AF's works really well and I'm happy with it. It's just video that the AF is poor. I get round this by just using single point non continuous AF - it does work for 95% of the time but the subject obviously can't be moving 😊
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto Just one other on the 780. It’s cool that you pay attention! But I kind of want everybody including Nikon to know not everybody is a fan of the mirrorless… Love your work! Very inspiring! I’ve been shooting a lot of real estate and I am over it. Going after weddings! Thank you for putting out the way you do!
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto One other thing to consider, I know we are not supposed to drop our cameras on the ground. But I have never had to send a D body to be fixed and I have sent my Z, one time and it’s on the way for the second time. They are fragile.
Does anyone here use a gimbal or axis stabilizer like a Ronin when capturing video? I have always liked videos captured with the proper video gear vs counting on IBIS. Just a thought.
Same here I've been hybrid event shooting for 5 years with mine. I wanted better video AF so it's a real dilemma to know wether to go with the D780 or the Z6.
I think Nikon screwed up royally not including IBIS in the D780. ….. And, Nikon really need to refresh the Z6/7 EVF for continuous shooting, as well as putting a faster processor for better 3D tracking. …. Just saying.
I have used many SLR's and DSLR's but the primitive OVF's, relatively poor video capabilities, huge size and weight make the DSLR experience poor outdoors, and they are only pleasant to use on sticks in the studio. I started with medium format and 4x5 in 1962, and have seen many camera types come and go over the decades, but once getting used to mirrorless, it is clear that the DSLR will slowly fade away over the next decade. It is also plain that Pentax is the only company that is still sinking any development costs into DSLR bodies. That will probably keep them going for up to a decade, but I can't help but imagine a future obituary for Pentax - the company that couldn't let go of the past. Don't forget that CD music sales were still increasing years after the iPod and iTunes were king, and CD sales didn't peak until 2015. The DSLR must be getting close to peaking right now, or already past peak sales. With no new DSLR's other than Pentax coming to market, expect DSLR sales to nose dive.
@@artistjoh People and companies like new shiny things. None of these new bodies will appreciate in value including older digital DSLRs. Mirrorless bodies irritate my eyes. There's no getting used to it for me. Photography is a niche market that will fade almost fully due to the advancement of smartphone technology especially once they adapt to flash which we already have had partially with the iPhone accessory. Those who remain in the market imo will be professionals who require high end lenses. We'll still have UA-camrs b/c they need to make a living. But even photography UA-cam channels will fade due to over saturation and lack of ideas. What will remain is 35mm film/cameras. They will continue appreciating in value. Film photos (very niche) still go for a high premium among wedding photographers, and art museum photographers. It's turning into a similar time piece and high end exotic car market due to scarcity. Smartphones and a new 3D camera (digital meta world space) will take over following the decline of mirrorless. I don't see mirrorless having a long future. It's for cost cutting.
@@dct124 I have three Nikon FA's from the early 80's. Nikon marketed it as the Techno-camera. Back then there were the same sort of complaints from the old fogeys. They were certain that all cameras that used batteries wouldn't last ten years. Forty years later my three FA bodies have never given me a problem, whereas I wore out two cameras that didn't need a battery - two Minolta Autocord TLR. Their internal brass gears simply wore out. I still have two working ones, but it amuses me that I have had both electronic, and purely mechanical cameras that wore out, while the Techno-camera just keeps plugging on. I agree that stills photography will probably fade in importance, but will never entirely disappear. It is like how the camera has never eliminated the joy that artists experience before a life model with a stick of red chalk or charcoal in hand just like Michelangelo experienced centuries ago. A similar thing is happening with film. People seem surprised that there are those of us who still enjoy the process of shooting film and developing negatives. However, there are only a few film cameras still made, and most of them are low end cameras. The making of complex interchangeable lens SLR's seems to have faded into history, and we are reliant on using old gear. I see something similar happening with DSLR's. I do not expect a replacement for the D780 to ever be made. All new Nikons will be mirrorless, and we will need to nurse the existing DSLR's through the coming decades. Pentax, Lomography, and Mint are keeping the film segment alive for now, but their focus is mostly on lower cost amateur cameras. Meanwhile, there will be no more Nikon or Canon DSLR's. They are both ending production of both bodies and lenses. To be honest, I have been really surprised at how fast Nikon is discontinuing F mount lenses. They seem hellbent on forcing customers into the mirrorless replacements as rapidly as they can do it. I am now one of the F mount loving old fogeys, clinging to my obsolete gear, although 95% of my image making is on Sony, DJI, and Lumix mirrorless. I grew to love mirrorless.' I had figured we would see another decade of F-mount production, but in January 2024 they announced the end of all F mount manufacturing, and new sales will only last while existing stocks are sold off. Seems like a pretty definitive end of the Nikon DSLR. Canon is doing the same. Only Pentax continues to make DSLR's, and unfortunately, Pentax sales numbers are not good. They had a slight bump in 2021 when Nikon DSLR sales cratered, but that only lasted about a year, and their numbers have returned to their long term slow decline. I expect they probably have one more, maybe two DSLR models left in them before the brand gets retired and cameras like the Pentax 17 may be their last gasp, but they could easily get folded into the Ricoh brand. Or maybe Ricoh gets merged into the Pentax brand. It does seem sub-optimal for them to maintain two distinct brands.

Taylor, thanks so much for the prescient review. I'm still on the fence regarding which to buy, the D850 or D780; but I can probably make a decision one way or the other on this review. @chriserichorn
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto Thanks again; I have plenty of time to think about this, as I live and work full-time in Medellín, and it does not look I am going anywhere soon! I'm looking forward to your review of the Tamron 35mm 1.4, as that is on my list to possibly buy whenever I do get to visit the U.S.
The D780 seems like it is a nice mix of both worlds and could get more video options along with smaller file sizes than the D850 but yeah they are both looking beastly, either of these options will be amazing my friend:)

Love my d750 with tamron lenses but have to say that the 780 is extremely compelling 👍

would love to get a D780 or D850, then i would sell more photos, my D7000 had his best time.

How I wish to own one but can’t afford
Taylor, thanks so much for the prescient review. I'm still on the fence regarding which to buy, the D850 or D780; but I can probably make a decision one way or the other on this review. @chriserichorn
You can't wrong with either really. Enjoy the new camera! :)
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto Thanks again; I have plenty of time to think about this, as I live and work full-time in Medellín, and it does not look I am going anywhere soon! I'm looking forward to your review of the Tamron 35mm 1.4, as that is on my list to possibly buy whenever I do get to visit the U.S.
The D780 seems like it is a nice mix of both worlds and could get more video options along with smaller file sizes than the D850 but yeah they are both looking beastly, either of these options will be amazing my friend:)
I love the ideas you have with your photo shoots. Master of the craft! Thanks for the inspirations!
@@earthwalker4538 Thanks again for the feedback; again, it looks like I have plenty of time to continue thinking about this, i.e., like most people overseas, I'm not traveling anywhere for a while.
Send me some of that chips bro🤙🏾
😍
nice view
How to be a professional photographer like you??
❤❤❤
Still waiting her

Hi😍😍😍😍

that oil next to the camera... makes me uncomfortable.... thank you...
It makes it more weather resistant if it gets on the camera
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto Intriguing observation. Look out for that cold going around ;)
I hope i win the giveaway
liked before watching
I don't have any camera or smart phone. But I am still watching your video
Beware Nikon is good about cooking "Oil in the Sensor"
That is what happened to my 750. I jist purchased the 780 Friday. 😒
😭😢
