No, No, No! Your Gear is ALL Wrong!

Nick--it's clear to me you have several thousand D600s with 50/1.1AF-Ds on hand. I'll take one for 250.00 plus shipping. Thanks! Let me know---

But of course we all know the D850 has a 100 score.
Just like the Leica M10.

Leica M10 -- DXO Score 86(!). Price body new -- $7,295 at B&H.
Nikon D850 -- DXO Score 100 Price body new -- $3,296 (Amazon) Used: $3,198 (Amazon)
Nikon D750 -- DXO Score 93 Price body new -- $1,696 (B&H) Used: $1,159 (B&H)
Nikon D600 -- DXO Score 94 body new -- NA out of production. Used, excellent + condtion $709 (Adorama)

All prices current as of 5 mins ago, feel free to verify. The cost of an excellent+ condition full frame D600, with a sensor that scores 9.3% higher than the Leica M10 (and only 6% below their highest-rated FF sensors) in independent lab testing in dynamic range, bit depth, high ISO performance etc. is 1/10th the price. (About 1/2 the cost of your average crummy new digital Kodak Advantix F600 APS-C camera...)

I am showing you the way. Resistance is futile.

"While the M10’s overall score and sub-scores are good, they fall behind the best full-frame image quality we’ve found with the Sony A7R III and the Nikon D850.[...]In fact, the Leica M10’s sensor scores are more on par with the best APS-C chips we’ve tested..."

Perhaps the several thousand he owns are stored aloft in UFOs 🙄


But I still like my D600 =)

Obviously informations for people who care about DXOsth.
Sounds like a religion or cult to me 🙂

Neither a religion, nor a cult. A resource -- an independent lab that scientifically tests sensors with sophisticated equipment for a living and publishes their results to the sometimes surprise, embarrassment, and chagrin of those who actually are in a (whatever brand) cult 🙄 When those in the "whatever brand cult" don't like the results, confirmation bias sets in resulting in all manner of impolite language and scurrilous accusations directed towards those doing the testing whose results they no like-y. Most amusing -- and predictable. But certainly forgivable -- all part of the human condition underwhich we all exist.

... except the aliens that walk amongst us.

Well, I can't judge who pays their bills but I know with 100% certainty that I don't take any photos in a lab. 🙄
And I move my camera around and it's not mounted on a test bench either ... I have to admit, I do use a tripod occasionally 😱

I'm not sure any cult out there would take in a guy like me. 😀 I've been rejected by the best.

Can you refresh our memory? Was the D600 the disaster for Nikon that had more shutter oil leaks than the Exxon Valdez?
That was the model that had Nikon say 'frak it, let's just release the 610 and hope no-one ever mentions it again'

That shutter oil splashed onto the sensor, which resulted in weird artifacts in images. Some used this as proof of alien existence.

Anyone can be rejected by the best. It's once you've been rejected by the bottom feeders, the flounders of cults if you will, that you know you're special.

For me reading reviews and reciting their conclusions as relevant facts simply reflects a small horizont.
A contrivance for people not photographing active, aren´t able to reflect their own photography and that are driven to buy a camera.
GAS people.

GAS is a complete different activity from photographing. So there is and never will be a guilty relation.

When you buy a camera with an xy rating you only get what you buy.
There will be not one simple picture that is taken with this gear that has a unique feature until - and this is the point -
you succeed to constrain peoples view to the conclusion of reviewers 😉
 
I stopped reading after Point 1.
Not sure if this is a troll. but...
Film cameras do make you a better photographer.
Mary Ellen Mark and Elliot Erwitt agreed as well.
