TheNikon Df is afull-frameF-mountDSLRFX format camera announced byNikon on November 5, 2013. It uses dedicated mechanical controls similar to those used on mechanical 35mm filmSLR camera and has an appearance similar to theNikon FM,Nikon FM2,Nikon FE,Nikon FE2, andNikon FA film cameras.[2] Nikon's website stated "Using its large, metallic mechanical dials, photographers will rediscover a more direct connection with their camera."[3]
It has the same sensor overall score 89 ofDxOMark with Nikon D4, the Nikon Df (at time of release) ranked first in a low-light test with 3279 ISO (Nikon D4 with 2965 ISO), but in practice the difference was small.[4]
In a departure from the rest of Nikon's DSLR lineup, the Df does not record video, only still images; while most reviews were generally positive, this and other built-in limitations of the camera were seen as negatives. Also notable by their absence is a built-in flash and a variety of automatic modes, though the backward lens compatibility extends to nearly the entirety of the Nikon lineup since 1959.[5]
