The Nikon D800E Digital SLR Camera Body Deluxe Kit, available at B&H Photo, includes the Nikon D800E DSLR camera body as well as a number of essential extras for use with the camera.
Additionally, a 32GB SDHC memory card as well as a robust shoulder bag are included to store your camera with a connected zoom lens, 2-3 additional lenses, a flash, and other equipment (lenses, flash, and accessories sold separately).
In addition, a Nikon rechargeable lithium-ion battery, two extra rechargeable lithium-ion battery packs, and a dual charger for EN-EL15 batteries are included in this package. Additionally, a battery handle is included to help you get more shooting time out of your camera, as is a remote for snapping photographs without camera wobble.
An additional bonus is a bottle of lens cleaner as well as a microfiber cleaning cloth.
With a 36.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor and an EXPEED 3 image-processing engine, the Nikon D800E is a powerful camera. It can shoot JPEG and RAW images as well as Full HD 1080p video at 30, 25, or 24 frames per second.
The camera is compatible with Nikon F Mount NIKKOR lenses and is equipped with a 3.2-inch LCD screen for composing images. The D800E is equipped with a built-in flash and is also capable of using i-TTL flash control technology.
Its Advanced Situation Recognition System, which includes a 91k-pixel RGB sensor, brings out exact, true colors in any scene, resulting in results that are remarkably natural-looking.
