Recording Features

Overview: The D6 is Nikon's new flagship full-frame digital SLR, built for today's working professionals and photography enthusiasts. It can produce stunning 20.8MP still images and broadcast quality 4K video. The camera has the Nikon F bayonet mount, and is compatible with Nikon AF NIKKOR lenses, including Type G, E, or D lenses, as well as DX lenses (image area is automatically cropped). The D6 has dual memory card slots that accept CFexpress (Type B) or XQD memory cards interchangeably. The package includes the camera body with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery pack and battery charger. No lenses are included with this "body only" kit.

Image Sensor: The D6 is equipped with a new FX-format, 35.9 x 23.9mm CMOS image sensor with 20.8 million effective pixels (and 21.33 million total pixels). The Nikon FX format enables photographers to take advantage of the familiar perspective characteristics of 35mm film photography. You can choose to shoot in the FX format (36 x 24), or switch to 1.2x (30 x 20), 5:4 (30 x 24), 1:1 (24 x 24), 16:9 (36 x 20), or DX format (24 x 16).

Dust Reduction System: The camera has an integrated ultrasonic Self-cleaning Sensor Unit, which employs four different resonance frequencies to vibrate the optical low-pass filter and shake dust away from the sensor. Image sensor cleaning can be set to operate automatically when the camera is turned off or on, or can be operated from the camera's menu.

Magnesium Alloy Body: The D6 is made with rugged, durable, and lightweight magnesium alloy. The body is weather-sealed to resist dust, moisture, and electromagnetic interference.

EXPEED 6 Image Processing: The new EXPEED 6 processor is Nikon's most powerful processor ever, providing superb image fidelity and reduced noise, even at high ISOs. EXPEED 6 enables you to obtain class-leading ISO speeds, up to 102,400, and expandable to 3,280,000 for superb images in an extremely wide range of lighting conditions. The EXPEED 6 can also handle data-intensive tasks, like 4K video recording, with ease. This new image processor giving you an increased number of shots (14 fps vs. 12 fps for the D5) during continuous shooting.

Still Image Size/Quality: The D6 records still images in JPEG, and NEF* (RAW) formats. It can also record in both NEF (RAW) + JPEG formats simultaneously. JPEG images can set to fine (1:4 compression), normal (1:8), or basic (1:16) image quality. Depending upon the selected format (image area), you can choose from the following image sizes:

Movies: The camera can record movies in MOV format with MPEG-4/H.264 advanced video coding and Linear PCM audio, or MP4 format with AAC audio. Audio is recorded using the built-in monaural microphone, or an external stereo microphone. Image quality can be set to High or Normal. The maximum recording time for each movie option is 29 minutes 59 seconds. Each movie may be recorded across up to 8 files, with each file up to 4 GB in size. The available movie options include:

Dual Media Slots: The D6 has dual media slots that can accommodate either CFexpress (Type B) or XQD memory cards. No memory cards are supplied with the camera. When two memory cards are inserted in the camera you can choose the role to be played by the card in Slot 2:

• Overflow: Pictures will only be recorded to the card in Slot 2 when the card in Slot 1 is full.
• Backup: Pictures are recorded to both cards simultaneously, each with the same image quality and size.
• RAW Slot 1 - JPEG Slot 2: With the camera at the NEF (RAW) + JPEG, the NEF (RAW) images are recorded to the card in Slot 1, while the JPEG images are recorded to the card in Slot 2.
• JPEG Slot 1 - JPEG Slot 2: Two JPEG copies are recorded, one to each memory card, but at different sizes.

Touch-sensitive LCD Monitor: The Nikon D6 features 3.2-inch, 2,359,000-dot (XGA), color TFT LCD monitor with a 170° wide viewing angle and 100% frame coverage. The monitor has an 11-level adjustable brightness control using manual control or an ambient brightness sensor. The D6 features a Live View that lets you use the monitor in place of the camera's viewfinder to confirm your subject and composition while shooting. The touch screen can be used to position the focus point during live view, measure a value for preset manual white balance, and for typing. During playback you can swipe to view images, zoom in or out of images, view thumbnails, and view movies.

Optical Viewfinder: In addition to the LCD monitor, the D6 has an eye-level pentaprism single-lens reflex viewfinder with approximately 100% frame coverage in FX format (95% to 97% in other formats). It has a diopter adjustment knob so you can set the viewfinder to your personal eyesight (with or without eyeglasses). The bright and sharp viewfinder makes focusing in low-light situations possible. The viewfinder offers approximately 0.72x magnification. The viewfinder also has a built-in eyepiece shutter to prevent light from entering the viewfinder when shooting self portraits on a tripod. The viewfinder uses a Type-B BriteView Clear Matte Mark X screen with superimposed AF brackets and on-demand grid lines for clear and accurate focusing of your subject.

Ethernet and Wireless Networks: The D6 has an RJ-45 Ethernet port, and can be connected to a 1000 Base-T (gigabit) wired LAN network. It also has built-in Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n/a/ac; 2.4GHz/5GHz). You can also connect an optional WT-6 wireless transmitter to the camera's peripheral connector for connecting to a wireless network. Through the wired or wireless network, you can upload photos to a computer, control the camera from a computer (using special software), take photos or view existing photos remotely via a browser-equipped computer or smartphone, and synchronize the shutter releases of multiple remote cameras with a controlling camera.

Bluetooth: The D6 has Bluetooth 4.2 with a range of approximately 32 feet for connecting the camera to your smartphone or tablet using Nikon's SnapBridge app. Through the app, you can automatically transfer pictures from the camera to your mobile device to share via email or social media. The SnapBridge works with iPhone/iPad/iPod touch running iOS 10.0 or later. It is also compatible with Android devices with version 5.0 and up.

Electronic Virtual Horizon: The innovative Virtual Horizon provides instant, accurate confirmation of the D6's position relative to horizontal level. When using Live View, you can choose to display the virtual horizon on the LCD, a feature ideal for landscape and architecture photography. You can also level the D6 while looking through the viewfinder using the convenient analog scale.

105-Point Autofocus System: The D6 is equipped with Nikon Multi-CAM 37K autofocus sensor module, which features up to 105 focus point, all of which are cross-type sensors, and a fully dedicated AF processor. You can configure the AF system in 105-, 27, and 15-point coverage during continuous AF. Fifteen of the 105 AF points that support f/8.

Vertical Shooting Controls: The camera features separate controls that are positioned for use during vertical shooting: a shutter-release button, Fn and AF-On buttons, main- and sub-command dials and a sub selector. These controls allow you to operate the camera more naturally when the body is rotated counter clockwise for portrait-orientation photography.

AF-Area Modes: The D6 offers a choice of five focus area modes that together cover a wide area of the frame. The AF-area mode determines how the focus area is selected and what happens if the subject moves out of the selected focus area while the camera is still focusing. You can choose one of the following AF-area modes during Viewfinder Shooting:

• Single-Point AF: The camera will focus on the subject in the selected focus point only.
• Dynamic Area AF: The camera offers a choice of four different size areas to match the movement of the subject, using groups of 9, 25, 49, or all 105 focus points.
• 3D-Tracking: In AF-C focus mode, the camera will track subjects that leave the selected focus point and select new focus points as required.
• Group-area AF: The camera focuses on a group of focus points selected by the user, reducing the risk of the camera focusing on the background instead of on the main subject.
• Auto Area AF: The camera automatically detects subject and selects focus point. If a face is detected, the camera will give priority to the portrait subject.

Focus Modes: You can choose from the following focus modes:

• Single-servo Autofocus (AF-S): camera focuses automatically when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The focus remains locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The picture will only be taken when the in-focus indicator is displayed. Recommended for stationary subjects.
• Continuous-servo Autofocus (AF-C): camera focuses continuously while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Photographs can be taken whether or not the camera is in focus. Recommended for moving subjects.
• Manual (MF): focus is adjusted manually using the lens focusing ring

Predictive Focus Tracking: In continuous-servo AF, the camera will initiate predictive focus tracking if the subject moves toward or away from the camera while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway or the AF-ON button is pressed. This allows the camera to track focus while attempting to predict where the subject will be when the shutter is released.

Focus Lock: Focus Lock can be used to change the composition after focusing, making it possible to focus on a subject that will not be in a focus area in the final composition.

Electronic Rangefinder: The camera's Electronic Rangefinder can be used to confirm whether or not your subject in the selected focus point is in focus.

Release Modes: The release mode determines how the camera takes photographs. You can choose from the following shooting modes:

• Single Frame: camera takes one photograph each time the shutter-release button is pressed
• Continuous Low Speed: while shutter-release button is held down, the camera records 1 to 10 frames per second, as selected in the menu.
• Continuous High Speed: while the shutter-release button is held down, the camera records continuously at a high rate. You can choose a rate between 10 and 14 frames per second.
• Quiet Shutter-Release: during single frame shooting, noise is reduced by disabling the beeps and minimizing the sound produced when the mirror drops back into place.
• Self-Timer: use self-timer for self-portraits or to reduce blurring caused by camera shake; you can set the self-timer to 2, 5, 10 or 20 seconds
• Mirror Up: choose this mode to minimize camera shake in telephoto or close-up photography or in other situations in which the slightest camera movement can result in blurred photographs.

Interval Timer Photography: The D6 is equipped to take photographs automatically at preset intervals. Shooting will begin about 3 seconds after the interval is set or you can set a start time. You can select the number of intervals (1 to 9999), and the number of shots taken per interval (1-9). The interval length can be set in hours, minutes, and seconds (00:00:01 to 99:59:59). You can also set up the camera to take a silent time-lapse movie, with the frame size, frame rate, and image area currently selected in the movie shooting menu. Abrupt changes in exposure can be smoothed if in Auto Exposure mode.

Exposure Modes: The Exposure Modes determine how the camera sets shutter speed and aperture when adjusting exposure. You can choose from the following Exposure Modes.

• Programmed Auto (P): camera sets shutter speed and aperture for optimal exposure according to a built-in program; recommended for snapshots and other situations in which there is little time to adjust camera settings
• Shutter-Priority Auto (S): user chooses shutter speed while camera sets aperture for best results; use to freeze or blur motion. The shutter speed can be set from 30 to 1/8000 seconds.
• Aperture-Priority Auto (A): user chooses aperture while camera sets shutter speed for best results; use to blur background for portraits or bring both foreground and background into focus for landscape shots
• Manual (M): user controls both shutter speed and aperture for complete control over exposure

Long Time-Exposures: When the M (manual) exposure mode is selected, you can choose between two Long Time-Exposure modes: Bulb and Time. During Bulb shooting, the shutter will remain open while the shutter-release button is held down. Bulb shooting is used for long time-exposure photographs of moving lights, the stars, night scenery, or fireworks (an optional tripod and optional remote cord are recommended to prevent blur). Time exposures start when the shutter-release button is pressed on the camera or an optional remote control. The shutter remains open until the button is pressed a second time.

AE/AF Lock: If your subject is off-centered in the frame, it can become difficult to achieve proper exposure and focus. By engaging the AE/AF Lock feature, you can focus and meter on your subject, lock the exposure and focus by pressing the shutter release button halfway, then recompose your shot before taking the picture. You can choose from the following AE/AF Lock settings: AE/AF Lock, AE Lock only, AF Lock only, AE Lock Hold, AE Lock Reset, and AF On.

Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -5.0 to +5.0 EV in steps of 1/3, 1/2, or 1 EV.

Metering: The D6 utilizes through-the-lens (TTL) metering using the camera's 180,000-pixel RGB sensor. You can choose one of the following metering methods:

• 3D Color Matrix III: If using a type G, D, or E lens, you can utilize 3D Color Matrix Metering III (or Color Matrix Metering III with other CPU lenses). The camera meters a wide area of the frame and sets exposure according to distribution of brightness, color, distance, and composition for natural results
• Center-weighted: The camera meters the entire frame but assigns greatest weight (75%) to the area in the center of the frame. The diameter of the circle can be set to 8, 15, or 20mm, or weighting can be based on the average of the entire frame. (Non-CPU lenses use a 12mm circle or average of entire frame.)
• Spot: The camera meters inside a 4mm diameter circle (approximately 1.5% of frame). The circle is centered on the selected focus area, making it possible to meter off-center subjects.
• Highlight-weighted: The camera assigns the greatest weight to highlights to reduce loss of detail in highlights.

Multiple Exposure: This feature records a series of two to ten NEF (RAW) exposures in a single photograph. Multiple exposures can be recorded at any image quality setting, and produce results with colors noticeably better than photographs combined in an imaging application because they make use of RAW data from the camera image sensor. You can choose Series Mode, Single Mode, or Off, and from four overlay modes: Add, Average, Lighten, or Darken.

White Balance: White balance is used to preserve natural colors under different types of lighting. You can choose one of the following white balance options: Auto (3 options), Incandescent, Natural Light Auto, Fluorescent (7 options), Direct Sunlight, Flash, Cloudy, or Shade. You can also choose a color temperature from a list of values (2500K-10000K), or manually set the white balance using the subject, light source, or existing photograph in the memory card as reference. The White Balance Fine Tuning feature allows you to compensate for variations in the color of the light source or to introduce a deliberate color cast into an image by adjusting the amber, blue, green and magenta color settings.

Bracketing: Bracketing automatically varies exposure, flash level, Active D-Lighting (ADL), or white balance slightly with each shot, "bracketing" the current value. You can set the increment to 1/3, 2/3, or 1 EV, and the number of shots to 2, 3, 5, 7, or 9. In exposure, flash level, and ADL bracketing, multiple shots are required to complete the "bracket" as the camera will vary the settings with each shot. With white balance bracketing, the camera creates multiple copies of each photograph, each with a different white balance. Bracketing can be combined with continuous shooting or the self timer modes.

ISO Sensitivity: ISO Sensitivity is the digital equivalent of film speed. You can set the ISO Sensitivity to Auto or Manual. You can manually select settings of ISO 100 to ISO 102400 in steps of 1/3 EV, 1/2 EV, or 1 EV. For special occasions, expanded settings of Lo-0.3 (equivalent to ISO 80) through Lo-1 (ISO 50), and Hi-0.3 (ISO 128,000) through Hi-5 (ISO 3,280,000) are available.

Preset Picture Controls: The camera offers seven preset Nikon Picture Controls. You can choose a Picture Control according to the subject or type of scene:

• Auto: camera automatically adjusts hues and tones based on the Standard Picture Control
• Standard: standard processing for balanced results; recommended for most situations
• Neutral: minimal processing for natural results; recommended for photographs that will later be extensively processed or retouched
• Vivid: pictures are enhanced for a vivid, photo-print effect; recommended for photos that emphasize primary colors
• Monochrome: takes monochrome photographs
• Portrait: process portrait for skin with natural texture and a rounded feel
• Landscape: produces vibrant landscapes and cityscapes
• Flat: details are preserved over a wide tone range; good for photos that will be retouched or processed later

Picture Control Settings: The Preset Picture Controls listed above can be modified to suit a particular scene or your creative content. The following manual adjustments can be made:

• Quick Adjust: allows you to reduce or exaggerate the effect of the selected Picture Control Preset from -2 to +2
• Sharpening: controls the sharpness of outlines from 0 to 9; you can also select Auto which adjust the sharpness automatically according to the scene
• Clarity: adjust clarity manually or automatically
• Contrast: adjust contrast automatically according to the type of scene or chose from values between -3 to +3 to increase or decrease the contrast of your subject
• Brightness: reduce or enhanced brightness level from -1 to +1; this does not affect exposure
• Saturation (for non-monochrome): automatically adjust saturation according to the type of scene or choose from values between -3 to +3 to lower or increase your subject's saturation
• Hue (for non-monochrome): adjust your subject's hue from -3 to +3 to change the level of Hue
• Filter Effects (for monochrome): simulate the effect of color filters on monochrome photographs from yellow, orange, red, green or off
• Toning (for monochrome): choose the tint used in monochrome photographs from B&W, Sepia, Cyanotype, Red, Yellow, Green, Blue Green, Blue, Purple Blue, or Red Purple.

Color Space: The color space determines the gamut of colors available for color reproduction. You can select either sRGB for photos that will be printed or used "as is" with no further modification, or Adobe RGB for images that will be extensively processed or retouched after leaving the camera.

Active D-Lighting: Active D-Lighting preserves details in highlights and shadows, creating photographs with natural contrast. Active D-Lighting offers the following application strength levels: Auto, Low, Normal, High, Extra High 1, Extra High 2, and Off.

Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS): The D6 does not have a built-in flash. Optional flash units can be attached to the camera's accessory shoe. The camera supports the Nikon Creative Lighting System when used with CLS-compatible flash units, such as the SB-R200, SB-300, SB-400, SB-600, SB-700, SB-800, SB-900, SB-910, and the new flagship flash SB-5000. The following flash modes are supported:

• Front-Curtain Sync (Fill Flash): This mode is recommended for most situations. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto modes, the shutter speed will automatically be set to values between 1/250 and 1/60 seconds.
• Red-Eye Reduction: The red-eye reduction lamp lights for approximately one second before the flash fires to reduce the red-eye effect.
• Red-Eye Reduction With Slow Sync: Combines red-eye reduction with slow sync for use with portraits taken against a backdrop of night scenery. (Tripod recommended)
• Slow Sync: Flash is combined with shutter speeds as slow as 30 seconds to capture both subject and background at night or under dim light. (Tripod recommended)
• Rear-Curtain Sync: The flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating effect of stream of light following moving subjects. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto, slow rear-curtain sync is used to capture both subject and background. (Tripod recommended)

Flash Control: The camera supports two flash control modes:

• i-TTL Balanced Fill-flash for Digital SLR: Used with matrix and center-weighted metering, the flash emits a series of nearly invisible pre-flashes immediately before the main flash. Pre-flashes reflected from objects in all areas of the frame are picked up by the 180,000-pixel RGB sensor and are analyzed, along with range information, to adjust the flash output.
• Standard i-TTL Flash for Digital SLR: Flash output is adjusted to bring lighting in the frame to a standard level. This mode is automatically activated when spot metering is selected.

Flash Compensation: Flash compensation is used to alter flash output from -3 EV to +1EV in increments of 1/3 EV, 1/2 EV, or 1 EV to change the brightness of the main subject relative to the background. Flash output can be increased to make the main subject appear brighter or reduced to prevent unwanted highlights or reflections.

FV Lock: This feature is used to lock the flash output, allowing photographs to be recomposed without changing the flash level and ensuring that the flash output is appropriate to the subject even when the subject is not positioned in the center of the frame. The Flash output is adjusted automatically for any changes in ISO sensitivity and aperture.

Built-in GPS: The D6 can record location data with the built-in GPS receiver, and can create track logs as you shoot, or while the camera is off. The camera supports GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), and QZSS (Japan) global-positioning systems. When the GPS receiver is enabled, it can acquire latitude, longitude, altitude, and time (UTC) data. The internal clock can be synchronized to the time acquired with the GPS receiver. Track logs can be recorded at intervals of 15 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 2 min, or 5 min for a period of 6, 12, or 24 hours.

Streaming Webcam: Using Nikon's Webcam Utility software, you can use the camera to live stream high quality video on many of the popular video conferencing software platforms. You will need to connect the camera to your computer via the included USB cable. The camera's microphone will not capture sound, so a separate microphone is needed, plugged into the computer's microphone port. Optional accessories include a tripod or other mount, and a constant light source. The software works with many of your favorite streaming apps, including Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, Facebook Messenger, and Microsoft Teams. Nikon's Webcam Utility is compatible with Windows 10 Home, Pro, or Enterprise (64-bit only) and macOS Big Sur (Version 11), macOS Catalina (Version 10.15), macOS Mojave (Version 10.14), and macOS High Sierra (Version 10.13).
