Show a novice two similar images and say one came from a mirrorless camera, and they will ask for help in buying the superior camera.

Which just might be the DSLR.

Have a wonderful day,

The D800E does have a built-in flash and in a pinch, it works quite well.


I concour on that, as mine D800 has a built in pop up flash!

It may not be dead, but it is dying a slow death.

Maybe not so slow.

My NIKON D3400 will outperform any mirrorless camera on the market.

It's the lighting that enables my D3400 to outperform other cameras.

My niece may have an opportunity to acquire a used D800E from her late great uncle’s estate at a bargain price with some good lenses. She is a beginner but shoots mainly for a local newspaper. She does no post processing now but is planning to take a course. Would this be good for her or would it potentially just frustrate her? This question is mainly for Nikon users and I don’t know much about this camera other than what I read at the BH site. Right now she uses a CanonT100.


It would be a good opportunity only if she is interested. Young people learn fast, so unlikely the purchase would cause any frustration in learning how to use it. Never a problem to know how to use 2 camera systems (Canon & Nikon)
