Nikon Df vs D610 vs D800: 03 Continuous shooting

The Nikon Df has the sensor of the Nikon D4, but it does not have the D4 11 frame-per-second shutter mechanism or massive buffer capacity.

Instead, the continuous shooting speed is limited to an adequate but unexceptional 5.5 frames per second, which is beaten – just – by the 6 frames per second of the D610.

The Nikon D800 lags behind at just 4 frames per second, but can be excused because of its high resolution, more than double that of the Df and 50% more than the D610.

The Nikon Df is not sports camera, then, but it holds its own amongst its similarly-priced stablemates.
