The real reviewer of Technobuffalo! I'm suscribed to this channel only because of you and Jon Quatch (he's damn nice, I used to follow him on his own tech channel before).
@jon4lakers Has mike done a review of the Canon D60 or possibly are there plans to review the new D60a or T4i? I'm in the market for a midrange dslr in the next 6 months and was just curious. Thanks and great site/videos.
Please answer this question, does the fact that it is higher res than a D4 or D700 or any other Nikon camera, also mean that the image quality of the D800 is better than any other Nikon Camera ? we all know the D4 is a machine gun, and takes great images also, but if you compared the images side by side with the D800, is the D800 King or Not,does the 36mp really make its images more special than a D4 or D3 or 5D3, personally i haven't seen one image posted from the D800 that proved it was King
Hi joh I always watch your review man!Great video. I was wondering how do you get such a clear and sharp vide pic when you imported to youtube? I recently bought D800 and couldn't get the export setting right. Thank you in advance. You answer much appreciated ! :)
Mike very nice review I love this camera. I have the D7k but don't plan on going up to D800 because I don't really need the FX but still the camera is a beauty! I liked the 5D MkII but between the D800 and the MkIII I prefer the D800
why did it take you till June 9 to get the D800 for review ? I look forward to the 5D3 review and comparison, but once again, that camera has been out for a while also, why are you so behind everyone else ? I enjoyed the review so I guess better late then never, but I hope your 5D3 review is real soon
Nikon and Canon have such a professional relationship. Nobody suing eachother's asses. Canon all the way for me, but Nikon is strong as well plus their lenses are top notch. Canon body with Nikon lenses is a win-win-win situation
You didnt really read my post, right? It was about battery life. For the built in flash its only for emergency little bit fill in or as master, but it is better than no flash.
Is it worth investing in a Full frame ? i mean m not a pro nor m i earning from it...i luv wild life,bird,street photography....i need a good zoom....which i get on an APSC plz suggest.... is canon 7D at this moment worth buyin? or Say Nikon D800 or D600 or D7100? i also wanna invest on Telephoto zoom lens around 1800$ on lenses.....
Great review, im still a little annoyed this guy has been so marginalised on this channel because he is by far its best and most knowledgeable reviewer. This camera is the dream, as great as im sure the new Canon 5d mkIII is, this D800 is by far the more revolutionary. Its so great ill bet more than a few Medium Format pro's are switching to it. And then you have to consider that this is said to have the best sensor of any camera on the market (say DXO labs), an insane achievement by Nikon.
If you aren't invested in any lenses go to for 5D MkIII. I have the D800 and the files are a lot bigger than I would like. Also the D600 feels a lot more like the D7000 than a pro body. It also doesn't focus very well in low light and is lacking a PC sync port.
I love the review, but I would only think about buying this camera if I had that amount of change to just toss around. It is a beautiful camera, and I would probably need a class to understand how to use the whole camera but maybe one day I can buy one.
I wish performance point and shoots had this sort of quality specially the quality in low light because i like to take my Canon Powershot everywhere i go and snap random photos
Yeah you're probably right, i have read of a few MF pros going to the D800 but its definately a minority, no one will dump £60k of Hassleblad/Phase One for anything. I think whats so revolutinary with the D800 is that it tells where the next generation of their cameras will be headed, itll definately give people looking into going MF a real choice to make.
I think the Canon 7D is great and awesome for still and video. Depending what your needs are, you could do some great things with the the Canon 7d and it should be very cheap now.
As a photography editor at technoBuffalo, you should be aware of copyright violations. You stole Ken's image of the D700. I'm impressed by the coverage of the D800, and it is a good review. However, if you do not own a D700 to take your own photo, then how do you have the experience to make the distinctions of the D800 you make against the D700?
the best option for you aviator. is to get the 7100 and put your money in a great lens,... the 7100 is a great camera especially for a low price.. depends on your budget of course.. but the 7100 will be all you need for what your doing i also have one.. of course i own the d800 also.. so its my main camera.. thanks
Great camera.. I am not really a nikon guy I like more Canon.. But a 36 megapixel full frame sensor is really awesome.. Next DSLR review should be the Canon Mark iii.. Thanks. :)
no, nikon did. thats like saying that samsung produces iphones because the make the processor, an besides, nikon tweaks the sensors so that they are better. its nr.1 on dxomark for a reason
because if you can't say 100% for sure, that the D800 images are more special and beautiful than a D4 or D3 or D700 or 5D, than why would you want to deal with those file sizes, and having to get 64gb cards, but if you can say that the images are king and better than those other cameras, than those huge file sizes make sense to deal with, so what is the answer to the last question ?
I can partially agree with you (but not for the tone you used).. anyway if you could easily pronounce something right, why not? I'm Italian and it took me 5 minutes to ask for Levi's jeans in USA 'couse I pronounced it the italian way for example..
Eleven years later everyone is trying to go into mirrorless bodies. No hobby will drain your bank account faster than photography. Camera bodies depreciate faster than a car after you drive it off the lot. Now matters are worse because you need new lenses for the mirrorless mounts.
I like this guy for what he said for HDR !!!!! HDR made with photomatix or all these shits are crap, it's better when you do it MANUALLY on photoshop with all your bracketing photos at different exposure
Hi, do you know "Photo SFXart Tricks" (just search on Google for it ...)? On their website you can watch a great free video showing the way to take awesome photographs. This helped Daniel to create pictures that leave you with that jaw-dropping-effect whenever you take a look at them. It may help you out as well...
He should have opened up with hey, how you doin' lol, I thought I'd get the cheery WHAT'S UP GUYS from John but instead there's a stranger in a strange land holding what looks like a dead mouse up to his mouth. I do love the NJ Devils , oh yeah, the camera, man I wish there was a re-do with Jon or even the new chick on this one. This guys great but he's no Kai from DigitalRev
9:12 WRONG, the sony A77 with fulltime AutoFocus during video is a BEAST (thanks to the translucent mirror) And i have to say that compare to the Sony, Nikon or Canon are crap in AF during video mode (and i'm a nikon fan boy trust me)

Mike does the best reviews of all techno buffalo. Thanks for this mike, very informative
I REALLY LOVE THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH HE SHOOTS THE REVIEWS, WAY TO GO MIKE :)
this guy has improved himself so much . . . used to hate him . . . great work keep it like that . . . and yes my english is bad i know :D
@jon4lakers Has mike done a review of the Canon D60 or possibly are there plans to review the new D60a or T4i? I'm in the market for a midrange dslr in the next 6 months and was just curious. Thanks and great site/videos.
Great review. Thanks. Keep up the great work. Can't wait for the Olympus OM-D review
Those are some nice looking photos! I especially loved the one of the license plates!
Could you please share the all the accessories' names that were attached to canon 5d at 0:36
Very nice review. Thorough and informative
Please answer this question, does the fact that it is higher res than a D4 or D700 or any other Nikon camera, also mean that the image quality of the D800 is better than any other Nikon Camera ? we all know the D4 is a machine gun, and takes great images also, but if you compared the images side by side with the D800, is the D800 King or Not,does the 36mp really make its images more special than a D4 or D3 or 5D3, personally i haven't seen one image posted from the D800 that proved it was King
Awesome review mike !!
huge amount of information without being overwhelming, kudos!
Dude, I have to say you do a great job with the D800 camera review. Thank you for the info!
Does it have rear flash sync standard?
Or is it like the 5dmk2 where you have to buy a $500 flash to get that 'feature' .
can you take pictures and video with this camera ?
Hi joh I always watch your review man!Great video. I was wondering how do you get such a clear and sharp vide pic when you imported to youtube? I recently bought D800 and couldn't get the export setting right. Thank you in advance. You answer much appreciated ! :)
Very nice video.do you also have one on the D810???
Huge amount to cover with a camera like this. Nice work.
I when I shut off my D800 not all of the display on the top screen shut off. Is there any way to shut off all of the display on the top screen?
what mic is he using and is it connected to the camera?
Mike very nice review I love this camera. I have the D7k but don't plan on going up to D800 because I don't really need the FX but still the camera is a beauty! I liked the 5D MkII but between the D800 and the MkIII I prefer the D800
nice and to the point review, keep em comin
why did it take you till June 9 to get the D800 for review ? I look forward to the 5D3 review and comparison, but once again, that camera has been out for a while also, why are you so behind everyone else ? I enjoyed the review so I guess better late then never, but I hope your 5D3 review is real soon
Great review my friend! Can you do a review on the Canon T4i? I'm curious about Live focus in Video mode, and the compatible lenses... Thanks!
Nikon and Canon have such a professional relationship. Nobody suing eachother's asses. Canon all the way for me, but Nikon is strong as well plus their lenses are top notch. Canon body with Nikon lenses is a win-win-win situation
What is exactly the use of Q (Quite Mode) and Mup (Mirror up)?
You didnt really read my post, right? It was about battery life.
For the built in flash its only for emergency little bit fill in or as master, but it is better than no flash.
Canon 5D Mark III vs Nikon D800 ,D600
which one should i go for?
any other cam?
Is it worth investing in a Full frame ? i mean m not a pro nor m i earning from it...i luv wild life,bird,street photography....i need a good zoom....which i get on an APSC plz suggest....
is canon 7D at this moment worth buyin? or Say Nikon D800 or D600 or D7100?
i also wanna invest on Telephoto zoom lens around 1800$ on lenses.....
why you still didn't make cybershot hx200v review ???!!??
Great review, im still a little annoyed this guy has been so marginalised on this channel because he is by far its best and most knowledgeable reviewer.

Awesome review but too bad these camera are for professionals and really expensive!
What town and state is that? Connecticut?
I love the review, but I would only think about buying this camera if I had that amount of change to just toss around. It is a beautiful camera, and I would probably need a class to understand how to use the whole camera but maybe one day I can buy one.
Very intelligent comment. Your brilliance shines through.
Are dslrs inherently expensive or is this just because its a bit of a niche market?
I agree, not to mention the D700 completely jumped on top of the 5D Mark 2 in terms of ISO performance.
I wish performance point and shoots had this sort of quality specially the quality in low light because i like to take my Canon Powershot everywhere i go and snap random photos
hey can you do a review of the sony A77
I wish this guy still made reviewed cameras
Me too! He is the best!
Man good review, better that how The Fro does stuff.
Yeah you're probably right, i have read of a few MF pros going to the D800 but its definately a minority, no one will dump £60k of Hassleblad/Phase One for anything. I think whats so revolutinary with the D800 is that it tells where the next generation of their cameras will be headed, itll definately give people looking into going MF a real choice to make.
Great review, thanks!
awesome review....
what's the issue?
The DEVILS won today!
I'm a Canucks fan, but i feel happy that NJ won.
I think the Canon 7D is great and awesome for still and video. Depending what your needs are, you could do some great things with the the Canon 7d and it should be very cheap now.
OMG, the microphone is only used in the video mode? Not on the pictures?
Oh damn...that camera is not for me :\
but, will it blend?
i have no idea what any of this means, but I just like watching his videos
Anyone noticed the bug on the camera at 03:20 ?
As a photography editor at technoBuffalo, you should be aware of copyright violations. You stole Ken's image of the D700. I'm impressed by the coverage of the D800, and it is a good review.

nice review!!! made me love my d800 even more = ]
When you are standing still in front of the camera you can see the D800 re-focussing every 3 seconds or so. There better use single focus mode.
the best option for you aviator. is to get the 7100 and put your money in a great lens,... the 7100 is a great camera especially for a low price.. depends on your budget of course.. but the 7100 will be all you need for what your doing
i also have one.. of course i own the d800 also.. so its my main camera.. thanks
outro song?
Great camera.. I am not really a nikon guy I like more Canon.. But a 36 megapixel full frame sensor is really awesome.. Next DSLR review should be the Canon Mark iii.. Thanks. :)
Actually the D700 was released before the 5D Mark II
Aclimated?
not a bad reviews for 6 months ago. A lot of good points, but some inaccuracies here and there as well. cheers.
Ahh that makes sense, since Finland and Alaska are in the same parallel of latitude.
This is how I've always done my reviews.
no, nikon did. thats like saying that samsung produces iphones because the make the processor,
an besides, nikon tweaks the sensors so that they are better. its nr.1 on dxomark for a reason
please review sony dsc-hx200v
Why was there a shot of a tree at the end? And where did he go? :P
I always use primes, so that in-built flash will work perfectly for me :)
review the Canon EOS 650D/Rebel t4i
Where do you live?! Its beautiful!
because if you can't say 100% for sure, that the D800 images are more special and beautiful than a D4 or D3 or D700 or 5D, than why would you want to deal with those file sizes, and having to get 64gb cards, but if you can say that the images are king and better than those other cameras, than those huge file sizes make sense to deal with, so what is the answer to the last question ?
Now thats a beast!
Let me guess. This video was recorded in southern part of finland. Finnish nature looks very much similiar
Great review, I know what kinda camera I want know. I like :)
I can partially agree with you (but not for the tone you used).. anyway if you could easily pronounce something right, why not? I'm Italian and it took me 5 minutes to ask for Levi's jeans in USA 'couse I pronounced it the italian way for example..

I taught he was holding a cat up to his face at the start!! Great review man.. :)
3:20 you have a bug on the camera...
Did he ever stop to breed . . awesome review : )
Breathe
Man, I love you. way to stick it.
Video isn't available yet, and it has 2 likes?
Good call reviewing this camera before the 5d mark III otherwise you would have come away REALLY underwhelmed.
I like this guy for what he said for HDR !!!!! HDR made with photomatix or all these shits are crap, it's better when you do it MANUALLY on photoshop with all your bracketing photos at different exposure
Vervain flowers =) 08:30
+Skyethur lupin
i used to watch this guy before he was even tehnobuffalo. he is a camera guy. in all meaning of the words
Haha, yeah. DigitalRev are more into entertainment, I like them.
I believe he is in Alaska IIRC
When I saw the price I almost fainted..
The guy above me is a badass
no 480p
Why wouldent it be?
amazing !
What did you mean when you said bob is your uncle??????????
that furball of a microphone is absolutely terrible - the c270 HD logitech webcam microphone has less static than that.

it is
Sweet I thought you only did phones and tablets
He should have opened up with hey, how you doin' lol, I thought I'd get the cheery WHAT'S UP GUYS from John but instead there's a stranger in a strange land holding what looks like a dead mouse up to his mouth. I do love the NJ Devils , oh yeah, the camera, man I wish there was a re-do with Jon or even the new chick on this one. This guys great but he's no Kai from DigitalRev
9:12 WRONG, the sony A77 with fulltime AutoFocus during video is a BEAST (thanks to the translucent mirror) And i have to say that compare to the Sony, Nikon or Canon are crap in AF during video mode (and i'm a nikon fan boy trust me)
Compression and noise reduction to cancel the floor noise next time please, pretty annoying
still 7D in not full frame sensor
Why are you talking into a tribble?
