Nikon have broken the mould again by creating the world's first Full Frame DSLR specifically for astro-photography, the D810A.  Now, one would think that all you needed to do would be just to point your camera to the heavens and press a button. But there is a lot more to it than that (as our own staff have found out - ask for Jordy at our Chelmsford store). With a modified IR sensor, breath-taking 36.3 Million pixels sensor, and an ISO range that will make warp speed seem slow, the Nikon D810A not only allows you to reach for the stars, but capture them as well.

Simon Iddon Group Product Manager (D-SLR Lenses and Accessories) at Nikon UK says: “We’re excited to introduce the D810A, Nikon’s first FX-format camera that’s been specifically designed for deep sky photography. The D810A is built on the powerful, high resolution D810 - an obvious choice considering the need for fine detail and absolute precision in this field: the D810A delivers on both counts.”

We've created this handy little guide to get to grips with the D810A, and work out what the major differences between it and the "standard" D810.
