Nikon D750 WHY People Are Still BUYING in 2024!?
The Nikon D750 is now almost 10 years old and yet people are still looking to buy this camera in 2024! Even though Nikon has discontinued production some years ago, people are still scrambling to buy a D750 on the second hand market. WHY? In this video I will be delving into this D750 to discuss some of the reasons why people still want it in 2024.

I guess with the higher cost of living nowadays, rent, house repayments, bills and food all going through the roof, the Nikon D750 secondhand is a viable budget option for those not splashed with cash 📸
The. D-750 is a Wonderful Camera Boston Massachusetts
I have had my D750 for 7 years now. It's the best camera I have ever owned. I bought the Z6ii about a month ago. And I love that camera so far as well. But I am definitely going to keep my D750. No way I can bring myself to part with it. I mostly do studio shoots with an occasional outdoor shoot. Both cameras are outstanding.
You are exactly correct. It's not the gear that takes the photograph, It's the photographer. Love seeing video's about older model cameras. There is nothing wrong with a working camera body. Great Video Adrian.
Really appreciate you watching. Have an awesome weekend 🙏
I just bought one today out of a gut feeling because it was a a deal i could not resist and looking at these videos i am becoming more and more certain that i did the right thing. It will be my 4th Nikon and i am beginning to understand why my dad had several analog Nikons and always wanted another. Must be the genes...miss you, dad.
Image quality is excellent. The color isn’t like most cameras models. The colors are richly balanced and has this filmic feel rather than digital to its pictures. And it’s a joy working with these photos in Lightroom. Just got mine a couple days back and I’m not at all regretting it!
Well explained - totally agree 👍
D3s shooter here, old is gold 🤙🏻
Just bought on d750 japan, shutter count 50 mint condition just over $1000 thank you to your video love it
I think it's not just about the D750 that's keeping it relevant. The new mirrorless cameras caused all the pros to sell their F-mount glass and switch to the new mirrorless mounts. This was further compounded by the Z6 and the Z7 not being as good as the Canon and Sony offerings when they released (most of this was fixed with either firmware updates or the series II versions of the cameras) so then people switched to systems which the F-mount glass was not adaptable to. The market was flooded with expensive F-mount glass and the prices went down. I bought a D500 with grip, 2 peak design straps, a bag, a ton of lenses: 18-140mm DX VR, 35mm f/1.8, 40mm f/2.8 micro, 50mm f/1.4, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8 VR, and 200-500mm f/5.6 VR for less than $3000 a few months ago. To buy all of that glass (which isn't even available for Nikon in the Z-mount) for mirrorless would cost at least double, maybe triple.
I started my Nikon adventure with a D200. Later I made a step up to a D300s. In 2014 I read a review on a new Nikon release and put the D750 in my bucket list. Since then there have been a host of priorities that put a new camera on the someday list. Someday has come and my bucket list contains one less item. The D750 is a dream come true. Being a bit of DSLR dinosaur, I can't imagine ever wanting or needing more. I am smiling a lot lately.
Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏
I have bought mine in december as a beginner. I didn't regret it.
Great video, Adrian. I bought my D750 new back in the fall of 2014. It's still going strong and I'm keeping it!
Great to hear! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Absolutly agree, I changed the camera to z5, but I still sometimes continue to shoot on D750
I love my D750. I'm constantly amazed at the quality of the photos it produces. And one of the selling points for me, why I preferred it over the newer D780, was the pop-up flash. So handy, and works really well when you don't have your speedlight with you.
Thank you for the effort and sharing. I am an appreciative subscriber. I literally photographed an event this morning and opted for the D750 because the built in flash just added a kiss of fill flash via TTL and that was all I needed. The D750 is often the right tool for the job. Thumbs up.
Great video again Adrian. Now I have retired, I look at second hand value items and after seeing a review of yours bought this camera as I love your photographs. So glad I did as it’s superb. One thing is that there are not many videos about the 750, so I also inspiration from your tuorials. Thanks🤗
I have a D750 :) loved this video.
I am a professional wedding photographer and I shoot on a D750. I have been using it for 7 years and just recently upgraded my D700 backup to the D750.
D750 has been my main camera for years. 3 years ago got a D850 primarily for aerial work, but with the new AI editing features, the D750 can do the job about as well. Heck, my D700s upscale very nicely (and quickly) in Lightroom classic, rivaling the standard D750 files. Did upscale the D850 a time or two but realized I'd need a lot more computer. ...and a lot more storage!
That's so cool, awesome! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Love my D750, it does everything I need it to.
Thank you Adrian for another great video. Just for information, I am an amateur; I purchased my Nikon D750 new in 2017. It is still going strong and has never let me down.
Love your channel, keep up the great work. I have a Nikon D750 and love it!
Many thanks for watching.
I still own the d750, and appreciate ur videos on this camera. Also enjoy ur channel
I still am using D750, in mint condition. Love it.
hello，thank you for the video I am planning buying a secondhand d750 mainly for studio product shots, do you think it’s great? What lens do you recommend! Thank you and keep up the great work!🎉
Bought a D750 almost 2 years ago to replace my old D600 and I love it.
You are so right about this camera, the shots out of it are high quality for sure and that doesn't change no matter how many new models come out. Built to last and still does an amazing job - which you can see by your many great examples.
Thanks for watching. I just used the D750 this afternoon would you believe and those were my exact thoughts. Beautiful images from this camera. 📸🙏
The D750 is another workhorse. It’s pretty insane how good the images straight out of that body look. Great video buddy!
Thanks Peter. Fired off some shots with 750 this afternoon. Man, I love this camera sometimes. Have a great weekend mate 👍🙏
Hi just watched ur video and I do own a d750 but I av moved to mirrorless with the Zfc and also the zf but still use the 750because it’s still to me a proper camera as to my d500 both awesome and will keep always and I also dug out my first Dslr camera the d40 another keeper thanks for the video 📸👍
Yes, I still have my D750 and I plan on keeping it.
Still have my Nikon D 750…. And a Nikon D 7100 as well!!!! Love them both!!!!
Hello my friend since I’ve been a subscriber to your channel you have done videos and taken some amazing stills with your trusty D750. So I am not surprised they are still selling them in 2024. 👏👏📸🙏🏼
Thank you so much for watching my friend. D750 is just one of those cameras with everything I need and more. Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated and have an awesome weekend, take care 🙏📸
Oh, just subscribed to ur channels and hav to view all I have missed lol
I bought mine just few days ago... for just $650 in very good condition and n just one try out.... I am in Love again!!!!! and my decision was influenced by your reviews and comments on this camera. So, Thank You!!!!!
I have the D750 & also the D610. Absolutely love the both of them. The D610 shutter sounds so good. The 750 is superb.
If i may ask, what do you see are the practical the differences (+/-) between the D750 and D610. I have a D750 and wondered if I should pick up a D610 and if so, why? Thanks in advance. Thumbs up.
Great video about the camera I'm about to buy! 😊 Have been shooting the D800 for about 10 years and it's still great but I want something a bit faster and lighter.
Great work, enjoy 👍
Adrian, nice video, I appreciate you still loving the D750. Never had one my self but you can’t argue the quality camera that it is.
Thank you for watching. Just something magic about this camera that I can't bring myself to part with it. Have an awesome weekend my friend, cheers 🙏📸
I bought mine new right as the 780 was announced. I shoot it along with my d7000. Love both and I am not planning on getting rid of them.
Yes, my D750 focuses reliably, has low noise, good colour and it focuses my old screw driven D lenses too.
Mine unfortunately fell into a river... I regret it very much, but I switched to the D780 which gives me just as much satisfaction. Still, the D750 had a little something special for me. A great camera!
I bought mine back in '15, and I am still very happy with it :-)
Great review Adrian and your nearly convincing me in buying one, I use MPB site and prices start from 334€ hmmm, have to ask the wife! Many thanks for sharing the info - have a great weekend
Hi Shaun, thanks for watching mate. I think your cameras are good enough my friend. I thought you'd be eyeing off the new Osmo Pocket 3. Very good for vlogs in low light apparently. Enjoy your weekend 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography recently bought the Pocket 3 with mic, very good 👍
Great video Adrian! Infact I have been watching your other vids as well. Keep up the great work! Last year after using D800 and D7000 for a long time I wanted to buy a mirrorless full frame, but looking at the prices opted for D750 and paired that with Nikkor 16-35mm, 24-120mm and 80-400mm 5.6GVR for an Alpine trip in Europe. The results were stunning and I had no regret of not buying any mirrorless, and want to continue with this camera! So when I found your video totally agree with you!
Thanks for watching. Just something very special about the D750 images. I love it 🙏
I just returned from my holidays with it and even I’m still impressed 😅 I took it along with me because it was lighter than my D850 and knew I wouldn’t be disappointed! My fave function is the U1 and U2 function which came in handy at the Melbourne City fireworks 🎆 because I dialled in my settings and saved them while capturing other scenes. You can have 3 different settings ready to go at your finger tips 👌
Thanks for watching. Yeah I know that feeling when you get some great shots and think wow this camera is still awesome. Enjoy your weekend mate 🙏👍
I bought a pre-owned D750 with a new shutter last year and absolutely love it. I guess that the main reason to upgrade from it would be to take advantage of the IBIS in the latest cameras.
I bought a new 750 just before it was discontinued,love using it but also have a z7 for more detail if needed.Both are great 😊
Yes I have one
Just bought a D750 today with a 50mm 1.8G - lots to learn but looking forward to it - it was your Astro video that convinced me to give it a try 😊 looks like a great allrounder…
Have fun 🙏
Got mine last year .. Mainly for the pop up flash !! well really for the the CLS Flash control that the pop up flash allows !! but also the really good sensor.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Great video, thanks. I bought my D750 when they were first released and have used it for professional portraiture ever since. It's never missed a beat and the output quality has never been questioned by my clients. I started with a new D70 when they first came out, then upgraded to D300, followed by a D7100 (all DX) until finally upgrading to the D750 FX. The larger viewfinder alone was a huge improvement and the quality over the D7100 was noticable. I've considered the Z mirrorless range but I can't justify the cost of changing over, considering it's not going to increase my client base or income.
Thanks for watching. That’s exactly right. Clients don’t ask what camera you take photos with. They just care about the quality of the photos which the D750 delivers in spades 👍
I’ve been using this for video and photography interchangeably. It’s absolutely fantastic, and extremely robust. Tokina and Tamron lenses work great.
I've used a D750 for a goodly number of years and it has never let me down in any way. Equally I can say the same about my earlier D610 but my praise is greatest for my ageing D700 which I regard as THE classic full frame Nikon camera. I shoot a lot of theatre photography which can have very difficult lighting so I have a lot of dependency on these three cameras for "the decisive moment" and they do just that.
Still rocking my D750!
Top, i love my D750
I love my D750. I dont think I will ever part ways with this camera. Mate you making my purchase decision harder between Nikon D850 or to keep shooting with my D750
I only just bought one last week. I have three Nikon film SLRs, a D40 and D90 and every one of them still works, from my FE from 40 years ago to my DSLRs. Nikon is pure magic.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Adrian, great video. Yup the Nikon D750 was on my wish list when I was about ready to retire, and during Christmas in 2018, it was going for under $1,000. BUT, my wife did want to send that much money. So, I had to wait for few years later, I purchase a Nikon Z5 on sale under $900.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated. Enjoy your weekend 🙏
Excellent video, Adrian! Yes, I own a D750 (bought in April 2023)...and I will NOT be letting it go!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I do have a Nikon D500 Crop Sensor, also have a Nikon Z50 mirrorless. I also have my D600 full frame but thinking on change it for a D750., possibly in the next month or so. I am a Nikon fan since the late 70's and have never regret it. I use to have a Nikon FM2 that my grandpa' gifted me back in the late 70's and since then I have been Nikon... Today I am just about to enter into my 65th birthday and getting ready for my retirement and the D750 will be my replacement of the D600 which have been great to me. The D500 and the Z50 are my go to for wildlife (D500) and Z50 for my Macro. I really appreciate your videos on the D750 and have giving me the information needed for my decision... Thank you very much.
It was my first full frame camera, bought in 2014 and used 5 years. Amazing camera.
Super video Adrian, as you know I don't shoot Nikon but I think all manufacturers sometimes almost hit the mark perfectly and when a model like that comes along and you happen to have it they hold a certain spot in your heart. I really love my now outdate Sony A6400 and like you with the D750 it would be very hard to part with it!👍👍👌👌
Thanks for watching Scott. I use the D750 weekly for at least something I have to do. It’s always been a reliable camera. Cheers mate 🙏👍
What is that cool camera chest strap @ 7:20ish into this video? I just found your channel. Cool content. I still shoot with a D810 and don't have any plans on selling it either.
That’s not camera strap that’s my Lowepro sling camera bag.
I love my D750. It does everything I need a camera to do.
Fantastic! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
i still own one it was my first full frame camera. At the moment i don"t shoot a lot of photo anymore don't have the inspiration but i'll keep it for sure it does wonderfull pictures
Love my D750 bought it to replace my D700 as my main way back in 2015. Still going strong and no plans on upgrading it.
Hi Adrian, absolutely true. It is the photographer's skill, not the camera. You can take stunning photos even with your phone 🙂 But anyway, the D750 is definitely a good camera and there is no reason for not buying it. Thank you for the video, buddy! Enjoy your weekend, Christian
Thanks for watching Christian. D750 does deliver some great images I have to admit. I’m glad I kept it and didn’t sell it. Have fun this weekend buddy cheers 🍻 🙏
I purchased a used D750 a couple of years ago and have no regrets, it does everything that I want very nicely.
Still use my D750 and my D3 love the colours they give
Awesome. Thanks for watching 🙏
Yeah, I still have my D750. These days, I use it more when I'm out and about. I do prefer my D850 for its better camera, but I don't like carrying around the extra weight. I have been contemplating selling the D750 and buying a Fuji X-S20 for video stuff, but I'm finding it hard to part with it.
Excellent camera. Has made me a lot of money professionally.
Not only do I still own one today, but I also invested in two great lenses to complement its truly amazing sensor: the Sigma 28/1.4A and the Sigma 85/1.4A. I wanted to get a mirrorless camera, but I went for a medium format Fujifilm GFX 50SII which is a phenomenal machine. But I'm keeping my D750 as it is still a very capable camera. you don't need more for stills in a full frame world really. The sensor has a magnificent dynamic range and the build quality is top--notch. I also got some protective glass fot its displays and a silicone cover which once saved it from being smashed on a rock in the mountains. It's a wonderful camera to work with and to enjoy.
Got mine for 500 and I am thrilled. My D3 is still my favorite but the 750 is close.
Adrian it's Awesome too hear you say you Love ❤️ The D'750. I will never let my D-750 go and like you said it does everything you want it to do. And yes this is my second Camera that i luv to the Moon and back -- It feels so good in the hand, And oh boy is it a Workhorse.! Thanks again Adrian.!!! Boston Massachusetts
Thank you so much for watching the video 🙏
tengo una d750 en 2024 y con el lente 70 200 f2.8 una maravilla!
I have a D750 that I got just last year. It has less than 1000 clicks on it. The original owner had bought it while moving and thought he had lost it in the move and only found it several years later. I got it as I have a wonderful Nikon F4 and several very nice screw drive lenses for that set up and finally decided I wanted a digital Nikon that could use those lenses. The D750 is a natural for me. I'm not a professional but a very serious amateur and so I figured and I think rightly so that the 750 was a better fit for me than a D850 or any of the mirrorless Zed cameras that wouldn't have been able to fully use the lenses I have.
That's so great to read! Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
Hi! I'm an argentinian photographer and i'll travel to Europe in October .. and i am absolutely going to buy a second hand d750 in mpb or somwwhere else. I've always wanted it and i hope i can finally have it this year! Thanks for your video, i'm loving your content! ❤
Really appreciate you watching my channel. Happy travels 🙏
its still amazing beast
Hi Adrian, I'm a wedding photographer in upstate NY I own 3 Nikon bodies I use 2 when shooting weddings the D750 W/ Nikkor 70-200 & D780 W/ Nikkor 24-70.
That's brilliant to hear. Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I got one last year for £650 purely down to watching yours and others reviews and advice from others on the forums for the photography style I want to take(aeroplanes/helicopters and the odd car show)
Still have Mine :) :) :) I Enjoy Your Videos ThankYou !!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Thank you for watching 🙏
Hi Adrian, Yes, I still have my D750 it's a top camera I also have the Nikon Z7ll it will be my backup camera for when I go to Iceland. Norway and Dolomite..😊👍📸
I heard the dynamic range out of this camera is pretty insane. I saw one of your other D750 videos with that baby bird in a tree notch and it was crazy dark, yet you recovered stuff in post. Can see why people are still wanting it.
Thanks for watching. Yeah I remember that. D750 is very impressive for recovery of dark areas in pics. Enjoy your weekend 📸🙏
I love mine paired with sigma 30mm 1.4 art, but every time i feel its too heavy for travels and want to sell it, j i just can't bring myself to do it, the photos are amahhzing !!!!
I bought my first D750 a few months after launch, upgrading from a D50 (yes, really!). I added its DX twin a used D7100 for longer telephoto range and a couple.of years ago bought a second D750 so I'll always have one. I carry a D750 with me when I go out, using Voigtlander 20mm & 40mm lenses and a Nikon 85mm f1.8 AF-D for light weight (all top quality glass). I only take big zoom lenses when I think I'll need them
I bought this D750 in the year of 2016 and still am using it side by side with Z6ii. Both of them are very good indeed.
Hello, I currently still have my Nikon D7 50. Unfortunately, it’s brand new and in the box, I only popped the battery in to ensure that it functioned properly. Zero photos taken in five or six years now. I refuse to let it go as I brought it for Astro photography. I love watching the stars. Have to get Glass for it. I have even mapped where I want to spend the night camping to take photos.
I own two of them and would not trade either of them for another camera!
I have a D750 and I love it, especially for indoor photos with natural light without a flash. It is simply a classic camera that does everything well. 🎉
Totally agree! Thank you for watching 🙏
I use a d750 for taking Youth Sports Photos. it's a great camera. The only limitation I see is the number of frames per second before the buffer gets full. But overall, the image quality paired with Nikon glass is outstanding.
I have never owned a D750 but everyone I know who has one loves it. Thanks, Adrian!
Thanks for watching Phil, cheers mate 🙏
👍Holy truth, the Nikon D750 is a great camera. This is my first full frame SLR camera, it takes great photos and I'm still not convinced about the need to upgrade to the Nikons mirrorless.👏
Yep, still love my D750s. I have two.
Awesome 👍🙏
Wow! What a bargain on the secondhand market the 750 is! That camera certainly has been a workhorse for you whether it be video or stills. Ten years old or not, this seems like a great camera to keep in your arsenal until the day it stops working (if it ever stops working)! Makes a great companion to your D850 and your mirrorless! Great video mate, really enjoyed it! Have a great week down there!
Thank you so much Paul. I agree the D750 is an amazing camera in its own right. So having it as a back up should my D850 or Z7 goes down, is a worthy replacement. I know it's got my back. Hope you have an awesome week up there in the cool. 37 degrees here today, phew! I'm gettin' old haha! Cheers mate 🙏📸
@@adrianalfordphotography Florida temperatures down there for you, I don't miss that at all. On the polar opposite, our wind-chill temp yesterday morning was -19° C.
I bought one in the summer of '23 and took it to London for my trip. In Nov I bought a Fuji as a more mobile camera and the 750 has sat for a bit and was thinking about trading if for a new Fuji, but now I might keep and go back to it. Even more confused now on what to do lol.
Adrian, please let me know if and when you are in Townsville. Happy to meet up with you and show you what North Queensland has to offer in terms of landscape photography
I bought my D750 in 2019, and I’m still happy with the image quality I get
its such a capable camera. I think 24mp is more than enough for anything and has an amazing AF system and that amazing sensor. i have shot so many weddings with my D750 and 2 D600 bodies…They have worked a lot but they still are wonderful tools and work perfectly even after so many years! the D750 might be the best FF DSLR ever made for stills photography. It still is very relevant today… especially for pros and amateurs on budget and someone starting out as it has become so affordable.
Bought it last spring for the reputation for low light. After first outing shooting Rodeo at night at first look I was disappointed, until I began to post process, and I was blown away as I raised the exposure and shadows the quality and detail was jaw dropping!!!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
i have a d850 and d750 but last year the front curtain on d750 broke up inside the camera and i urgently looked for another knowing full well they were getting scarce but luckily i bought one for £795 gbp with 2000 shutter count it had everything as new ,when i can afford it ill get the other repaired and that will give me 2 d750 s which will last me now , my d850 is fantastic which is my main camera..great video by the way .
Awesome read cheers mate. Thank you so much for watching and commenting, sharing your thoughts, much appreciated 🙏
I own the camera, and I absolutely love it.
Absolutely still own the Nikon D750.
When I worked as a newspaper photographer sometimes people would tell me "your camera takes good pictures". 😂
😂 oh yeah I know that feeling. Not that the photographer had anything to do with it 🤷♂️😂
