BAM! Look what just showed up. The Nikon d780 and since it's so known, so fresh,
let's get a little unboxing going on, what do you say? Well, we're gonna explore
what it comes with and how the body compares to the d750, which you can see
I have right over here with me. But before I get into it, remember, come visit us
here at the Digital Goja Showroom in Miami. And don't forget, we publish new content
weekly, so subscribe to our channel and tap the go icon to get notified about
our latest videos. All right, so let's open this box up, see what comes inside.
The first thing you're gonna notice is the Nikon one year limited warranty
information and your instruction manuals, Now you're gonna get your instructions
in both English and in Spanish. I'm just gonna set those aside. On the right,
you're going to notice that Nikon now provides you with a USBC cable it's a
USBC to type a connection. Your MH-25A battery charger, here are the prongs that
you're going to use to plug in your battery charger to the wall. Nikon
provides you with one EN-EL15B battery. This is gonna be the same battery that's
found in the Nikon Z6 and 7 mirrorless cameras. Next, we have the
standard strap from Nikon, but I do recommend picking up the Altura Photo
Rapid-fire Pro Neck Strap. Now this is a much more comfortable strap to use with
the camera and simply connects to the bottleneck camera. Next we have a small
little accessory that I think it's lost in many people's cases, this is to cover
the viewfinder. Helps keep out light from entering the camera during the long
exposures. And the main star of the show. The Nikon d780.
Lets get a closer look at this camera. So here it is folks, the Nikon d780, and let me tell you, this is a
really beautiful camera. I know that be 750 was a really nice camera to use,
The D780 looks very similar but we're gonna take a look at some of the differences
between the D780 and D750.
Alright so, let's take a look at some of the
differences between the d750 and D780. So if you look very quickly the layout
of the body is very similar. You have your depth of field button and your
function buttons in the similar place but they're a little bit smaller on the
D780. The d750 has an AF illuminator but they have removed that on the D 780,
as you can see, it has the timer light right on the front, on the right-hand side of
the the lens mount, the button layouts, again, gonna be very similar so it's
going to be an easy upgrade. It's gonna be easy to get familiar with the cameras
from upgrading from this d750 to the D780. One thing you're gonna have to pay
attention to is the flash button. Now the d780 lacks the pop-up flash that the
d750 has, so this button will pretty much just change your modes whereas the
button for the flash will pop up the flash on the d750 as well as changed
the modes on the camera. Let's move to the sides of the cameras, and this is
where you can clearly see that there's a difference in the camera bodies, is the
layouts of the ports. Now they each have the same thing. You have your microphone,
your headphone, your USB interface, as well as HDMI and the remote cable.
Now the D780, as we saw in the unboxing, comes with a USBC cable whereas is a
standard mini B on on the d750. In addition you can
see that the AF/MF switch hasn't changed. You still have your mode button in the
middle. I really like this feature on the Nikon's it allows you to keep your eye
to the viewfinder and change your focusing modes, but again, the d780 doesn't
have that pop-up flash and you can see a little bit clearer the the button is not
as extended as it is on the d750. Now we'll take a look at the back of the
camera. So the back of the cameras are going to look very similar, but there are
slight differences to where the button placements are. You're going to
notice that now the Live View button and the mode switch between video and stills
has been moved up. I really like this because your thumb Falls naturally in
that area when gripping the camera. I think that's a very good move by Nikon.
Your playback and trash button are in the same spot, that hasn't changed.
Going back over to the right side of the camera the AF On button is new, this is going
to be where you're AE AF L button which you can program to to activate back
button focus was, but now you have a direct button, you don't need to program
that in the camera. The autofocus auto exposure lock button was pushed down on
the Nikon d780, and the touchpad, as of right now, it has very similar feeling, so the
moving and adjusting your autofocus points are going to be very similar on
the d780 as it is on the d750. And since they moved the mode switch from the d750,
they added a quick button to the right of the screen over here to access your
some menu features. Now on the left hand side, menu button, your lock and your
white balance hasn't changed as well as the quality and your magnification for
preview. Another difference that you'll see that we'll talk more about when we
look at the top of the camera is this button right over here, this is what
you're gonna use you to change your metering modes. So let's take a look at
the top of the two cameras to see, you know, what's the same? what is changed?
Alright, on the top mode dial there are a few things that are different from
the D780, you don't have the scene modes anymore, you do have an
FX mode. You have two user modes, you have your creative modes,
manual aperture priority shutter priority program and auto and you'll
notice that there's you don't have that no flash because the camera doesn't have
a pop-up flash. They change the dials a little bit it looks a little bit smaller,
just over time I'll be able to tell whether or not that difference made it
easier or not to change the settings, but, you know, it's really quick to change
your mode dials. I really like this this is where I see some of the I still feel
to me mirrorless cameras should have these settings outside of the the menu
options. On the right shoulder of the camera, the record button, ISO button and
exposure compensation button and that's what's changed a little bit
from the d750. The d750 you have the metering mode which we talked about
earlier on the top shoulder of the camera, your exposure compensation and
the record button, now you have direct control for your ISO, which is an
important setting, so I like that, you know those these features are on the top
shoulder for quick access. Okay, so you saw the top looks somewhat
similar. Let's take a look at the side of the camera, as you can see the grip on
the D780 is a bit bigger I feel that it's a bit more comfortable than the
d750 was although the d750 was comfortable camera to shoot with, and
both are gonna accept two SD cards. Now the difference is that these are two UHS
two compliant cards now the last thing we're going to talk about is the bottom
of the camera. The d750 you'll notice that right here is a rubber pad this
accepts the contacts for the battery grip and I do not see the same thing
here on the d780. So that pretty much covers it for the physical differences
between the d780 and the 750. Can't wait to test out the D 780 and
will make a comparison video between the D 780 and d750 in the coming weeks so
