Nikon D750 Competitors

As well as being compared against other pro DSLRs, the Nikon D750 is also often compared to mirrorless and entry-level DSLRs. The Nikon D750's top rivals come from Nikon (such as the D610 and the D810) and Canon (such as the EOS 6D and the EOS 5D Mark III)

Generally, some of the advantages of the Nikon D750 compared to other pro DSLR competitors include: it is much less noisy at high ISO (2,956 ISO vs 2,340 ISO), has much better image quality (93.0 vs 82.0), has much more color depth (24.8 bits vs 24 bits), has much wider dynamic range (14.5 EV vs 12.1 EV) and has a screen which flips out.

However, on average it doesn't have a touch screen, doesn't have a built-in GPS and has a slower max shutter speed (1/4000 of a second vs 1/8000 of a second).
