What is the sensor size of the Nikon D750?
The Nikon D750 is a digital camera that has a full frame sensor at its core. This imager measures 35.9mm in width and 24.0mm in height, so that the total imaging area of the sensor amounts to 862 mm2.
The D750 provides an image resolution of 24.2 megapixels, based on 6 016 horizontal pixels and 4 016 vertical pixels.
Sensor size comparison with a film slide
The sensor diagonal measures 43.2mm, which gives rise to a format factor (or crop factor) of 1.0. Therefore, the Nikon D750 is a full-frame camera, as its sensor size corresponds to that of a traditional 35mm film slide or negative.
Sensor specs and performance
The table below compares the sensor specs of the Nikon D750 to those of several similar cameras. The reported DXO values are indicators of the sensor's imaging quality (higher is better), covering color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape), and high-ISO noise (DXO Sports). Larger sensor cameras tend to outperform cameras of the same generation that are equipped with a smaller imager. On the other hand, larger sensors are more expensive and require bigger and heavier lenses than smaller light receptors.
