Many of you have asked about the Dynamic Range Tests & if there was a mix up. There wasn't. The methodology section is talking about HOW it is done. If there are any doubts, you can see the original tests here, including EXIF DATA: www.michaelthem... - includes the D750 vs 5Diii vs 7Dii
The opening music is called “Sinister Intent” by Danny Locke and it was licensed through songfreedom.com - he does some spectacular work and I hope to license more of his music in the future. The stead-cam shots were all done with the Canon 5Diii on a glide-cam 4000.
First off, you should know the Canon 5Diii is my workhorse camera. I used it nearly every single day I shoot. There is something about the look of the image itself I still ove, and it is very easy to use. I don’t think that will change too much in the immediate future.
When I originally started testing the Nikon D750 I was just super impressed with the still images coming out of it, there was a look and a sharpness that was noticeable and I found myself wanting to use it more and more. Eventually I came to the conclusion that the D750 was very different than the D600/610 based on image quality alone and it actually lined up very well against Canon’s 5Diii. Despite using both cameras regularly since their release, I knew that it would be impossible to say for sure which one was better and how, unless I did an Epic Shootout on them. I believe you will find many of the results surprising. This video represents a good 3-4 weeks of testing and production, so just know I do not take my Epic Shootouts lightly. Many of the tests were performed several times.
In the end, your skills as a photographer are going to be much more important than the camera you are using, if you are struggling to learn you camera, I have you covered:

The D750 was actually the camera that i wanted and in the portrait test i picked 10/13 so that made me happy. Great video man
same exact result for me
Really enjoyed the video Michael, great in-depth coverage. Big fan of your work 👍
Thank you Saf! I appreciate you taking time to write!
SuperSaf, now we are your big fans ❤
once again you TOTALLY OWN these reviews/shootouts!!! awesome work dude!
Thank you Dom! I really appreciate it!
+1
I'm sure they're very time consuming to produce but I wish we could have more :D.
I just ordered a D750 last night, can't wait! I currently have a D7000 so I'm expecting quite a big improvement all round, the dynamic range and ISO performance look amazing. I have been enjoying your videos for a while now, thanks again for putting the time in to make it. Fantastic job!
this guys reviews are outstanding, you wont even have a single question after watching the review.
Michael, this is THE BEST scientific, fool proof comparison that I have seen in some time. Especially, your surprise element on the Portrait shoot out completely defeated my opinions. I was so judgmental about one of the brands when it came to un-edited portrait photos, but your comparisons were simply spectacular and helped unveil a winner for specific reasons. Though it's a matter of personal preference, the portrait shoot out nailed the decision for me!!! Thank you!!!
Congratulations and thank you!
That was great and unbiased. As someone that is considering buying a D750, you have greatly aided in my discussion. Full frame DSLRs can be a considerable investment for some of us and you have made me quite comfortable that I am staying with Nikon. The portrait teat was very well presented. More people should have that kind of approach. Thank you for your hard work.
To be honest I am biased towards the D750 and have recommended it to multiple people over the 5d3. When I took the portrait test I got 10 points for the 5d3 and 3 for the 750, WOW!
There is something to be said for how an image just "looks" coming out of the camera. I still love the look of the 5D3 & I'm still using it all the time, even though I have these other cameras.
I got 10 points for the D750 and for canon o.o
MichaelTheMentor which one good for modeling? Plzz answer
Thomas Maxxamus Thanks bro!!!
Thomas Maxxamus what. D750 is not for someone just starting out. I've looked at the A7ii, but it is not a professional camera ... d750 is more of a professional camera than the a7 ... but like you, it is just an opinion, but unlike yours, mine is correct.
Said this before, but let me just say it again. Michael, you're easily one of the most comprehensive, data-based, objective, and interesting camera gear reviewers out there. You're one of the greatest. Period. Appreciate your work.
Thank you so much Bryant!
That 13 photo quiz at the end was genius. Was it your idea?
Yes- I've been doing it for yours now on different comparisons
+MichaelTheMentor Portraits quiz by me 10:3 for Nikon! Youre way to compare Cameras is the wolrd wide best! THANKS a very LOT!
If Canon does not come out with something epic with at least 4K capabilities in 2015, I will be hopping over to Nikon. Anyway, great work, Michael. I can feel your passion for what you do. Keep it up. Cheers!
Great video Michael. I appreciate your work. I purchased your D7100 crash course and have since upgraded to the D750. Great comparison. I agree with the focusing - it could be better, i find it works a lot better on 70-200 2.8 though.
You didn't touch on the auto ISO feature or the power aperture in video mode - it handles itself very well going from outside on a sunny day to inside a darker room - seamless.
The button customisation is a lot better in the D750 compared to other models too. I've mapped the ISO button to the video record button meaning i can adjust everything with my right hand and never take my eye away from the view finder.
Once again - great video, Keep it up.
Thank you for your support Adam I really appreciate it. There are a ton of features I didn't cover for the sake of time, flat color profile, 60 fps etc. really lots of great features. From what I've seen so far the focusing systems are beyond enough for most types of shooting. It's a great, great camera. Thanks again!
Excellent work - the 13-shot side-by-side comparison was invaluable.
As an owner of both cameras, I was stoked to see that you did an epic shootout between the two. Fantastic as always! In going back and forth between the two in the last month, I was surprised to find that the Canon 5DIII focus system was clearly still better. I was particularly surprised because the D750 is supposed to have the same system as the D4s. Your testing further confirmed my own experience. I shot about 30 weddings over the last two summers and find the focusing of the 5DIII to be indispensable.
It took no time to see that ISO and DR clearly go to the Sony sensor in the Nikon. That was definitely not a surprise and I hope Canon steps up their game in the Mark IV. In terms of color, I always shoot the Canon using a Kelvin WB setting regardless of subject matter (unless I'm using flash, then flash WB). I recently put it back to auto WB to compare with the Nikon. I definitely prefer the auto WB in the Nikon over the Canon and am comfortable leaving the Nikon on auto WB for most scenarios. When I leave the Canon on Kelvin, color comparison is a wash and I don't seem to have a preference between the two.
Finally, from just a pure shooting experience, I find the Canon more enjoyable to use and more ergonomic for my hands. It's still my favorite all-time camera although I'm sure the D750 is going to see some heavy use in the future also. Thanks again for all your hard work!!
I own the D750 and I recognise the skin tone from the portrait examples immediatly; it´s more saturated but I prefer the natural look from the Canon. I solved this (problem) with a color checker!
Man... is this the best camera review I have ever seen? Probably yes! You're incredible. I have a D750. Video is by far more beautiful in the 5D mark III in my opinion, but I do love how deep into the ISO the Nikon can get, which helps a lot in events for example, due to low light conditions. Problem is... when the focusing system does its job! hehehe... I love both cameras, and if I had money I'd buy the 5D for video recording. But my test was 11 (D750) x 2 (5D MK3), so I think I do prefer the image on my Nikon. The grip thing is a reality, I have never compared that before but I notice it every time I use my camera - finger space!!! Once I almost dropped my camera because of that. I have it on video by the way. Well, thanks for this amazing recording, 5 yeas have passed but it's still so current, how come haven't I seen it before?? Just great, congratulations! Gonna subscribe and watch more of your work. A7s vs GH4... hmmm... interesting! God bless you always. Take care.
i got the D750 around april 2016 for $1300. What a steal lol. No recall, no issue. Works just great.
I got the D750 with 24-120mm F/4 lens all for $1799 about 18 months ago.
I really appreciate the time and effort you took for this video not only are your reviews the most comprehensive. They come at a time where no one else is really doing match ups at the moment. This also reaffirms my decision to purchase a D750 thanks!
Thank you for your appreciation!
These reviews are a great thing ur doing here , i don't think it's getting the recognition it really deserves.
To put these together in such a short amount of time is just phenomenal to see.
13 for 13 for my D750. Great review!
I got 12 for 13 for Nikon. I've never actually used a Nikon before but some great quality from the portraits.
It's the first one of those blind tests I've done in these videos that was so one sided.
Same here. Only number 8 was in favor of Canon. My only concern is how convenient it is to operate. I found canon always has the best/easiest user interface.
I call Number 8 a Tie, but still I got 11 out of 13 for Nikon.
I owned two d7000 and I Got 11/13 for canon and 3/13 for nikon (number six is a tie).
Nevertheless, the Photo with the city in the back and the milky way on the top was all the way nikon.
Mine 11
The most in detail tests I have ever seen on camera reviews.
I will be watching more of Michael's reviews
Mike, Your shootout videos have become the reference of what a good review video should be. I hope some of the other online photo channels are following, they sure as heck can learn from you. Thank You.
I did the test of the image quality, and it seems I prefer D750 by a pretty big margin over the 5DIII. Cool video, thanks!
Is it crazy that i did too? I think I like the D750 more for stills and the 5D3 for video.
MichaelTheMentor Great review. I can't decide between those cameras. I ll use it equally for corportate videos and for stills. Why do you prefer the 5DIII over the D750 for video? Is it about the low light performance?
I chose the Nikon images as being better 4 out 13 times. The better dynamic range was the reason when I chose the D750 as better between two shots. Other wise, when the dynamic range of the scene isn't pushing the 5D, I think the Canon 5D MIII IQ is clearly better. I do question the equality of the lenses and perhaps some other factors, such as in camera sharpening.
There were some instances where I felt the lighting angle (reflection) had shifted some (even from the model slightly moving) giving an advantage to one or another. Also, adjusting the white balance in post could rectify some of the issues I noticed. I believe the Canon is worth the extra $1,000 but they're both good cameras with pros and cons and the Nikon certainly has some strong points.
When you tested the Nikon D750 vs the Canon 6D I preferred the Canon portrait colors more, but in this test I preferred the D750 output by a big margin.
It's not that difficult to correct the WB but I would have guessed that the Canon 6D and 5D would give similar results.
I own the Nikon D750 btw (used to be a Canon shooter).
Nice shootout!
This is so nuts. I literally like them both equally. I had to give a tie to pic 3 so both cameras got a point there. Thanks for the review!
For the 13 photos, I was able to identify the Canon vs. Nikon correctly 11 out of the 13. Nikon is yellowish while Canon lacks the dynamic range and is 'darker' looking. Nice video! Thanks.
Im a wedding photographer, mostly doing low light work. I used the 5D mark III for 2 years and then switched brands to the Nikon D3s and then the D750. In my experience, low light focusing, in terms of accuracy, is much better on the D750 than on the 5D. Plus, when focussing with the flash focus assist beam, the D750 is way faster than the 5D, but keep in mind that what lenses you use focus at different speeds.
Thomas Maxxamus Because this video compares video shooting of 2 non-4K cameras.
Wena Guille
Do you typically use an external flash with your wedding shoots for most low light shots?
sir which camera best photography
Don't know how I missed this one. Another great shootout... and another test where I got 11 out of 13 in favor of Nikon... Nikon and I were just meant to be :)
It's funny how some people get angry that reviewers do tests of the 3 year old 5d3 against the newest from Nikon, like the 810 and 750... but then you just have to ask them... "uhh, well what the hell else would you put against the 810 and 750? That is Canon's 'latest and greatest'"
Keep them coming, good stuff
Lol exactly! I've been doing this long enough now to know that there will always be haters- I just ignore them now and focus on the vast majority of my viewers who are supportive. thank you!
I enjoyed this video a bunch. I currently own a D750 and have mostly been a Nikon shooter since 2011. Im mostly a portrait photographer (fashion, family, wedding, headshots etc). So moving subject focus isn't a key thing for me, however, I have obsessive issues over focus. I was surprised to hear about Canons focusing points.I really enjoyed the portrait test - I scored 8 for D750 and 5 for the Canon. So to my eye these are both almost neck n neck. Thanks for providing this in depth and I truly enjoy and appreciate all you do for the photog community.Frank
What a comprehensive and helpful review! Thank you so much!
My pleasure!
+MichaelTheMentor I'm sorry I did not understand a thing about the tests, on both machines 50 1.8 was used, or a 24-70 2.8? thanks Federico
Thank you. Great comparison, i will use one of these to shoot some live footage at concerts.
I was a Canon guy (450D) but your test strongly suggests that i jump to Nikon. Nikon 12 Canon 1 damn :D
Holy S***!! That portrait test was pretty cool, I went in blind and apparently chose the camera that I've been wanting to buy...The Nikon D750! It got 12 pts vs 3 pts for 5Dmk.III (2 pts tied). It's final then, I'll get the D750 when my budget allows, no more doubts.
First of all, thank you for your detailed review of the 2 cameras. I appreciate very much the way you allows viewers to select their preferred photos and I couldn't believe that I've just selected all photos from the D750 except for photo number 6. Great review Sir! 👍
Great video, thanks! I was floored by the portrait test.. I discovered that I preferred the D750 in every single shot. I currently have Nikon glass and shoot a D3, and I was considering either getting a D750 or possibly selling everything and going to a 5D3 and buying some L glass. Now I think I will most likely stick with Nikon and get the D750. Thanks!
Excellent review michael, I am using a D750 now a days and its just extra ordinary camera and i just love it
reply me sir I want buy Nw cam for wedding pls suggest me nikhon 750 or cannon 5dmarkiii
+naresh kumar which lenses do you have as both are great camera's depends on your style of work and the lenses you have, but for me D750 all the way
Great review Michael. I loved it. I wrote down the shootout score i got 10 for the Nikon D750 and 3 for Canon. Great review. Thanks for taking time to do these test. I own the Nikon D750 and shoot weddings so was really pleased with your results. Many thanks to you sir.
Thanks for the comparison between the Nikon D750 and the Canon 5D mark III. I picked up the Nikon D750 and I love it.
Absolutely one of the best reviews I've seen; you seem to know what features and performances we photographers are interested in. I'm looking forward to your next video and keep up the good work.
Hi Michael. You are my new favourite camera goto guy now in youtube! Awesome in depth comparisons between the cameras. You are absolutely correct for claiming for having the best review comparisons in the planet! I'll sure share your videos with my friends. Few of us are in the midst of deciding what to buy. I currently have a d7000 which I've had for 4 years now. I think it's time for me to upgrade... I think mainly because of the price factor I'll go with the Nikon! I'm not a professional photographer, so I think the d750 will suffice more than enough. Kinda sad though why Nikon couldn't best the 3 year old Canon at every instance! The Canon 5d markiii surely has the best focus points features.
Thanks again for your great hard work. I've subscribed to your channel now. Cheers😁
Thank you Samiul- You will not be disappointed with the D750. It will be interesting to see how Canon responds, it has been a while since we have seen any full frame camera from them. Best wishes! M
I find myself more drawn to the Canon video and coloring on stills, but the fact is, the D750 is just a better value, which is why I ended up buying it (kitted with a 24-120mm Nikkor for $2,500). Thanks to editing, you can pretty much shape it to get the coloring you want. I don't think it will ever beat Canon on video no matter how much editing is done, but it's close enough to be usable. I agree, the focusing system on the Nikon is a bit of a frustration.
I appreciate your effort in producing this video,its totally different from most camera reviews out there. It is simple and has all the important information.
Very well done, as always with your epic shootouts! As a long time Canon owner (currently 6D), I agree that the D750 is truly amazing with image quality and a great value. I hope that the future 5D4 or 6DII can improve on dynamic range. Thanks for working do hard on these excellent videos!
Thank you Nicholas! I have very high hopes for Canon in 2015....4k video?? Please?? They need to step up their game in the DR category. We will see- thank you for your support!
nop. jajajajajajaja
lol canon just has a good iso with colors
Awesome comparison video. On the test I got 10 for the D750 and 3 for the Canon 5D. I just sold my D7100 last week and getting the D750, I can't wait. And even thought I still think the Canon 5D blows nikon out of the water for video shooting, my primary use of a DSLR is photo stills not video so I will definitely go with the D750, superior dynamic range and features for the money. If I was a video shooter, I would definitely go with the 5D Mark iii.
Excellent review and comparison. Extremely objective and critical.
Watching it in 2015 and still thinks this video could be the most informative piece comparing D750 with 5Dmark3. Keep up the good work.
A lot of work putting together this comparison for two specific cameras i'm looking at. Appreciate the video, sir!
Your Stouffer scale set up is genius - HUGE help in educating us in camera purchasing. Thanks
I got 10/13 in favor of the Nikon D750, I own a D610. Dunnow if it is worth upgrading, the D750 is sweet!
+Elie Kh Not worth upgrading. I am using the D610 for wedding photography and I am very happy with it. Recenlty I was able to try a guests D750 just for fun.... I felt no difference
+Stefan T. thanks for the info. i actually sold my D610 and got the D810a :)
I was actually quite surprised with the outcome, not that i'm knocking the 750 but the 5D is a renowned pro camera even today. and I've used it, But, I will say 750 was clearly more pleasing and the star shots and dynamic range were well impressive.
BRILLIANT review and i'm really thankful and appreciate the work you put in.
Thanks for the video Michael. This sums up my view on the Nikon vs Canon (as a Nikon shooter).
1. High ISO not significant... has slight advantage depending on which one is newer (faster glass would make more of an impact).
2. Canon lenses have a slight advantage overall, in quality and lineup. There are some that are better for Nikon but there are more from Canon that I wish Nikon would have.
3. Focusing system - Canon wins hands down. As with this test even with almost 3 years difference the 5DIII still edges out the Nikon. Although "maybe" some of the new features for Nikon could offset that (like group area AF, if this was not a direct comparison of single af point performance). Still, I've always wished the Nikons would have the Canons' AF (spread and crosstype).
4. Dynamic range - Nikon whips Canon's ass with this hands down... Canons have had pretty crappy DR for a while now (at least by today's standard and not just compared to Nikon). With the high ISO comparison not really making a significant headway for either this is the deciding factor for me. 2 stops difference (accross the board/lineup) is big. Well that and that Nikons are generally cheaper in my country.
5. Ergonomics is just a matter of preference. The labeling of Tv, Av and the focusing type for Canons just doesn't do it for me. It's silly and superficial but it somehow matters to me. I'm sure everyone can make similar points for the labeling, button placements, control types grip comfort for either camera lineup.
6. Portrait (WB) test doesn't matter much to me as I shoot raw. I'd like to sort/screen and tweak (if necessary) them in first place. Although it would be nice if it get's it right the first time.
Bottom line is you can't go wrong with either one. You'll just have to weigh what's important to you. The best professionals out there some years ago shot with cameras that aren't any better than the current lineup of entry level cameras and they produced stunning results with it.
Thank you for your comments and insight Peter!
MichaelTheMentor , actually I'm surprised that you didn't do the AF comparisons with the D750's group area AF mode turned on to see how much of an improvement that brings.
ArjunaKodi You mean to change a variable for one camera, and not for the other? That would skew the results. Besides, tracking a moving runner with one square only is quite easy.
MichaelTheMentor What about tracking the subject with what the camera's best AF mode has to offer? Zone AF AI Servo on Canon(maybe, not familiar with Canon) and Group Area-AF on the Nikon, it could draw both weakness and strength on both cameras. This could be not a balanced though but these are really interesting comparison. Just an opinion though but overall this is a very in depth review indeed.
im about to buy a canon, but after watching this, i decided just to upgrade my nikon D90 to D750.. thank you very much Michael :)
Great unbiased review. I switched from Canon to Nikon years ago, but I am noticing occasional off focus with the D800, D800e, and D5300. I came from a 5D Mark II so initially the focusing is much improved (versus one usable focal point).
Good to see Canon really improved focusing, but when focus is on, the Nikon image is so much better. I hope Nikon fixes the occasional front/back focusing issues, because that can really be a bummer. Of course it happens more on 3rd party lenses in my experience.
On the portrait test I scored 3 Canon, 10 Nikon. The Canon tends to be warmer which is ideal for portraiture (I always post process anyway), but detail and DR is muddy in a lot of the Canon shots.
I am subscribing because the intro is pulsating and my last name is Mentor. Oh yea, and this guy knows his stuff. Thanks for the review / shootout, in the process of getting the D750
I've been eyeing the Nikon D750. Thinking of buying. But when I actually had camera in hands at store the grip wasn't comfortable. I like how 5D feels better.
Indeed a very thorough shootout. I have the Nikon D750 since Oktober 2014 but it has serious issues. Sometimes the autofocus just doen not work, personal settings get lost to restore again an hour later. DSLR's basically are computers but the Nikon is an instable one. At least mine........
Not recommended based on practice experience...
Most professional testing I've ever seen
For the portrait score,
D750 - 11
5DM3 - 2
I can't believe it, maybe I am the Nikon user, get to used to get that warmer colour of the images.
But I can't admit that sometime Nikon get little more orangey skin tone.
Thanks for the review!
Wooow Nice review! and the score confirmed my thoughts 10 for Nikon, 3 for Canon no way! Congtrats for the serious test which anyone else does in such a a deep way.
Got the same results
Currently I have a D7100, more than enough camera for me atm. But eventually will upgrade to FF and love watching these comparison videos. Excellent job, thanks Michael!
HOLY SMOKES!!!! The difference in noise and dynamic range is stunning!
I just love my D750, expecially in low light situations!
It has the sight of a cat!!!
I don't even feel the need to take any HDR picture, I can just shot raw, underexposing the image a little, and bring up the shadows later while editing: The results are jaw-dropping
+Nox665 Always hated doing HDR, and I loved being able to bring up the shadows without having to do it.
+Nox665 You are doing it wrong. It's much better to slightly overexpose your shot, and then adjust the shadows. This way you get even less noise.
+Barkar I dont' see how... clipped highlights cannot be recovered.
In normal conditions, recovering shadows with a D750 without adding substantial noise is not an issue.
Note that when I say "underexposing the image" I mean adjusting the exposure so that the highlights are just about to be clipped.
The technique is called "Exposing to the right".
Do a quick google search and see it yourself.
+Barkar That technique is outdated now, when cameras are able to output images with such low noise. Nowadays, underexposing then bringing the shadows up is a viable way of preserving the highlights. Do note that this works better with Nikon since their cameras have much lower shadow noise, as evident in every camera comparison.
5d mark III is still difficult to beat before 4 years on the market. The Nikon looks nice but i think its important to say that it has a big problem with backlit photos with "banding" (i dont know the correct name) that i think is something very important to know before spend the money.
thanks for the video.
Thank you for producing such an amazing assessment of both cameras - I loved it and found it incredibly informative without any bias!
Thank you Ben- best wishes
I don't have the Nikon D750, but I have always liked it. This was evident in the image quality test part of your shootout were I scored a 10 out of 13 in favor of the D750 which makes the camera a must buy for me. Thanks for the shootout.
A great video, fantastic comparison and coverage. Well worth the time you took to make it - it's probably the best comparison video I've seen to date.
Michael, thank you for an absolutely fantastic shootout review. All the aspect of your review was absolutely spot on. I typically shoot birds and wildlife in general and appreciate the Canon for their focusing system. However, based on the portrait images, I was totally surprised that I picked the Nikon (11 of the 13 shots). Since I want to get into portrait photography more I will pick up the Nikon D750 with two primes (may rent first just to make sure). I truly appreciate your wonderful review.
Thank you Archie! I think you will love your new D750 - Congratulations!
Really a practical and great review ! i picked 10 photos of D750 in portrait photo comparison. Thanks for putting in this kind of presentation and i am going to buy soon to Nikon.
Love your tests and reviews. Thanks for the portrait comparison. Canon won with a score 9:3 (subjectively, of course). I always wondered about the Nikon D750 skin tones since I am shooting Canon, weddings mostly (the dynamic range doesn't bother me that much) and thought about jumping ship and go to Nikon. After your review I am going to stay with Canon for now. Thanks :)
Thanks Michael, a very thorough, logical and unbiased shootout on the merits of each camera. I have a D610 and wish that I had waited for the D750 but I am very pleased with the D610. If one is looking for a prosumer camera, there is a substantial price difference between the two D750 vs the 50D Mkiii. Both essentially do the same thing but the D750 has the edge on features, more bangs for the price.
Hi Michael... I have been following many reviewers in the past... This is first time I have seen your video.... Your review is so systematic supported with strong data... Oooooo, Potrait test was simply killer..... You are the best... Please keep up your good work... God bless :)
great review Michael, for weeks i was thinking of buying canon intro full frame camera 6d, and i was looking for some reasons to buy it, as i am a canon fan boy, but just after watching this video i am blown away with nikon performance with 5d mark3. definitely gonna buy nikon d750. thanks a lot for making it easy for me and getting a new subscriber. cheers
My pleasure shoaib- thank you for your support!
I like Canon and I'm surprised with my results:
Nikon D750 - 9/13
Canon 5D Mark III - 4/13
I'm thinking of upgrading my Canon T2i for the Nikon D750.
Another great video!
I really enjoyed the Canon 70D vs Nikon D7100 Epic Shootout video. This one is even better.
Keep it going!
Thank Huy! Check out the a7s vs gh4 shootout!
Your videos are awesome. It simply answered all my questions and now I have finally made up my mind about my next camera. Thank you very much!
You are welcome! Which one are you going with??
Michael The Maven I will get the 5d MIV :)
15.4% for the 5D M3 and 84.6% for the Nikon D750. My cinematographer uses the 5D MarkII and I use a Nikon D5200. I was a Canon user until I had to undergo some changes. I had taken the displayed test without giving a bias, as I've used both, and I'm surprised at the results. Of course it's an older make as they have the 6D out. Indeed, many people have stayed with their 5D M2 and 3 as there's not a great difference between them.
In the portrait image quality test I score 9 in favour of Nikon D750 and 4 in favour of Canon 5D Mark iii. Thanks a lot for such a great review and comparison. I'm going to have my D750 soon. Yippee!! 😊
That intro with the superhero vibe. Pure gold!
it was very easy to pick the d750 photos as they all had a yellow tint which was common with older Nikon's, I don't notice it with the new Z cameras which have some of the best color outside of medium format.
Was thinking about buying a D750, now I have fewer doubts on my decision. Thanks for the comparison and review.
Very nicely done. At first, I did not think I would watch the entire video. But you made it interesting and educational. I wish I had professors like you in college.
Lol- thank you! I actually taught freshman biology at the university of Alabama for 8 years, that's where I got started
Thanks a lot Michael. This must be the highest useful-information density I've ever seen in a CZcams video. I do a lot of low-light shooting and almost exclusively picked the D750 shots in the comparative images, so I think I know what I should get :-)
I enjoyed this very detailed and educated review as well as the testing at the end to really see what does your eye take to. That actually helped me a lot. Thanks!!
We shoot Weddings. We use Both D750 and D810 in Weddings. We also use a 5d m3 sometimes for video. But D750 is a winner any day. Both for photo and video over 5D m3. Btw My score in portrait was 11 D750 vs 2 5dm3. Again a Winner. Thanks Michael for the video.
Nice. 12 for 13 for the D750, totally helped my decision. If anyone is wondering #6 is the only one i chose the 5d3.
Thanks again! One of the only review makers who provides real data to viewer. At least I want to make my own conclusions like how much is it better, doest this difference matter for me. I'm personally shooting only RAW so for me it would work better if all tests are made with RAW only. I'm not sure is this possible but would be very nice to see Olympus OM-D E-M1 on your review.
Best comparison Ever. Rigorous and shows the qualities of photo that actually matter. Thank you for the 13 photo comparisons. Fantastic. I like the D750, and I chose 10/13 photos for D750. The D5iii autofocus was soft.
I know you're already working on your next shootout but maybe a shootout with camera in certain price range could be really interesting. "Best BANG for the buck" shootout?? Thanks again for your awesome videos!
great video,
very thorough and a creative dynamic range test.
keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Thanks for this shootout! This is so much more informative and so much closer to reality, than an undifferentiated good/bad, Nikon vs. Canon drivel that you frequently find on the internet!!
Wowww amazing comparison. I've always been a huge Canon fan but after scoring 12/13 Nikon for the portrait test, and seeing its performance in the astro photography test, I see I have a good reason to lessen my bias toward Canon.
In the portrait test result I liked prefered the 750 in all photo´s. Clear winner to me.
I just recently bought the d750 on an impulse and the more research I do the more I realize what an epic camera I just purchased.. some people say the 5d3 is better than the d750 but clearly there's no way.. not even close..
VERY great numbered comparison test near the end! I don't think anyone else does this in their reviews...gives people a real-world eyes-on comparison of what images a camera will give out...each individual image by itself looks good...but compared, you can find out what you like more...like heck, images from an iPhone look great, until you compare them to a "real" camera...heh heh...
I bought the D750 as an upgrade from my D90, and I was afraid to take your test...but turns out I chose 11 out of 13 for D750...
That portrait test was great! First of its kind I've seen since researching between the D750 and Canon equivalent.
I can generally tell the difference between the two cameras as I find the Canon is darker and warmer, but some of those portrait comparisons had me stumped.
thanks Michael. I owned two d7000, sell them both and all my gear to step up to full frame (from scratch) this gives me an idea of what to expect. I Don´t discard the a7rii or d810 too. The idea is wedding photography. By the way I do Love the dynamic range on nikon, but those canon colors they have control on me.
Thank you again.
Very nice, wanted to compare them for sometime, especially for new photographers who wants to enter the market, and at the current stage canon and nikon are quite close comparing to several years ago
michal
what a epic shootout
thanks buddy because i am also cofused to which camera i should buy you thank you very much and keep guide as in which lens we should buy
Yesssssssssssss!! I made a good decision it's my camera NIKON D750 the winner. My first begginer camera,
Hi Michael please upload Nikon D810 vs canon 5D Mark iii, your reviews are really a perfect buying guide
Sure appreciate the thoroughness of your videos. I am finding the addition of the Stouffer strips for comparing dynamic range tests very informative and helpful to get a better understanding. Expanding the comparison to higher ISOs helps even more.
i was shocked to see how your method of judging portraits helped me make my mind..out of thirteen,i chose eleven nikon pictures..i mean..great..thank you so much for publishing this helpful review.
