One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.
The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.
Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.
With sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera. This means the image will be stabilised regardless of what lens is being used.
The number of frames per second that can be captured in continuous drive mode when using the mechanical shutter.
With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.

Even though it is somewhat outdated, it is still good when it comes to speed, AF points and so on. However, it does not have Wi-Fi. For that, you are much better off with an APS-C camera, for instance, the NIKON D 7200. Operating a full-frame camera requires a certain level of photographic understanding. The depth of field is very narrow. For example, if two people are standing side by side and one is 20 cm further back, the person in the back will already be out of focus. This wouldn't be a problem with an APS-C camera. Lenses for full-frame cameras are also much, much more expensive. If you want exceptional photo results and are willing to buy pricy FX lenses, then it may be worth it, particularly since the body is currently priced at less than a third of the original price – and it's about 10 years old after all. Most importantly, you must devote a significant amount of time and effort to understand the subject.

A really good Nikon at a good price. A very good used choice. If you don't need the absolute latest and you're fine with a used camera, then I happily recommend the Nikon D600 and I am sure you won't regret it. Spend money on the optics instead.

È una fotocamera datata ma fa bellissime foto

Non eccelle con scarsa luminosità, ma nelle belle giornate fa delle foto bellissime. Chiaro è che necessita avere delle belle ottiche a cui poter applicare
