Engineered for Exceptional Imaging Quality
24.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS Sensor
Whether the desired result is a dark and moody photograph or an image with a stunning dynamic range, the D610’s FX format will be able to please even the most demanding of users. The 24.3-megapixel CMOS sensor on the D610 provides users with an extensive ISO range of 100 to 6400 (expandable from 50 to 25,600). This enables users to capture photographs in low light with true-to-life colours and minimal noise. The ISO range of 100 to 25,600 is also accessible when capturing HD videos under challenging lighting conditions.
EXPEED 3 image-processing engine
The D610 boasts high-speed processing power with its EXPEED 3 image-processing engine. On top of providing users with smooth operation and image processing, the camera is also capable of bursts of images of up to 6 frames per second in FX and DX-formats. To further enhance the speed and workflow for photographers, images and videos can be rapidly transferred to the dual SD card slots that are compatible with SDXC, UHS-1 as well as Eye-Fi cards.
The D610 offers a power-up time of just 0.13 seconds3 and a release time lag of approximately 0.052 seconds3. For capturing fast-moving objects, the D610 features an improved shutter release mode capable of continuous shooting at approximately 6 frames per second in both FX and DX-formats. The D610 is also equipped with an innovative Quiet Continuous (QC) shutter-release mode that allows for near-silent shooting at approximately 3 frames per second. When the QC mode is selected, the mirror movement sound is significantly reduced, allowing users to photograph subjects with minimal disruption. This unobtrusive mode is ideal for photographing nature and for use in quiet environments such as theatres.

The D610 is equipped with a unique 39-point autofocus (AF) system to cater to a wide variety of shooting conditions. Featuring autofocus modes that are useful in various photography situations, photographers can select single point AF, continuous AF, Dynamic AF or 3D tracking to keep pace with moving subjects throughout the frame.
f/8 aperture compatibility with teleconverter
The D610’s 39-point AF system is compatible with an aperture value of up to f/8 for capturing impressively sharp images in all situations. When connected with a telephoto lens or a 2x teleconverter, the D610 enables precise focusing even at an effective aperture of f/8, ideal for nature photography and long distance shots.
HD-SLR video technology for the Full HD experience
The advanced video features provide photographers with the ability to record Full-HD videos at 30, 25 or 24p, and 720p videos at 60, 50 and 30p. Budding film-makers can also take full manual control of the exposure. This allows switching between FX and DX-format (1.5X) in Full HD for a telephoto boost or for altering the depth of field. Time-lapse photography enables users to select high-speed playback from 24 times to 36,000 times and combine still photos into a movie.
