It fares pretty well in adverse conditions, though. It may be easy to use, but it’s still a DSLR. And no, you can’t flip it around for selfies. It’s a wee bit heavy to do this too often, but that extra flexibility is entirely welcome. The Nikon D4S and D810 have fixed screens because, well, it’s simply what super-serious high-end DSLRs do, but here the screen moves out on a hinge, able to tilt both up and down to help when shooting above or below head level. For example, this is the highest-end DSLR Nikon produces to offer a tilting screen. You see this mix of high-end chops and accessibility elsewhere too. While certainly capable of creating pro-quality photos, you don’t need to have studied any weighty photography tomes to get on with it.

With an FX-series lens attached, the Nikon D750 is a good deal heavier than any compact system camera or an entry-level APS-C DSLR with a plastic lens attached. Just make sure you’re ready to handle the weight. It’s not showy, but feels like it could withstand wars.

With a deep smooth curve that cuddles your fingers like a long-lost friend, the ergonomics are fantastic.

Its rubberised grip is terrific, and has been hugely improved since the D610, which is the step-down model in Nikon’s current line-up.

But the sort of shooting confidence it provides is great. With cameras such as the Sony A7R showing you don’t have to be this big to use a full-frame sensor, it’s not a ‘cool’ look anymore. The Nikon D750 has quintessential DSLR design.
