AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Condition
The camera body is in near-new condition.
The shutter count is only 12,161, which is extremely low for this model, which is rated for approximately 200,000 uses. This means that more than 90% of the shutter's rated lifespan remains, making it an exceptionally well-preserved unit.
There are only very light signs of careful use.
The rubber grip and thumb rest are firm and free of peeling, the top status LCD is clean and perfectly readable, the hot shoe shows no wear, and the lens mount has almost no friction marks.
The eyecup is flawless and properly mounted.
The optical viewfinder is bright and clear.
The rear LCD has a protective cover and is free of noticeable scratches.
Electronic and mechanical functions have been tested and verified.
The viewfinder is also clean and bright.

Brief Description
The Nikon D800E is a high-resolution specialist in the highly acclaimed Nikon D800 series. Unlike the standard D800, the D800E cancels the effect of the optical low-pass (anti-aliasing) filter, allowing the 36.3-megapixel full-frame sensor to resolve the absolute maximum level of fine detail. The result is exceptional sharpness and micro-contrast comparable to medium format systems of the time, making the D800E popular among landscape, studio, architectural, and art photographers seeking the highest resolution.

Shipping Method
Shipping is handled by FedEx/DHL/EMS with full tracking and insurance. Items are carefully packaged with protective materials to ensure safe transport.
Depending on the regulations of your country, import duties and taxes may apply. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. In Europe, import duties are typically around 20-30% of the total value.

Collector's Notes
The Nikon D800E holds a special place in the history of digital photography. When the D800 series was released in 2012, its 36.3-megapixel sensor was a sensation. However, with the D800E, Nikon went a step further, designing it to cancel the blurring effect of the optical low-pass filter. This allowed the sensor to capture as much detail as possible, producing images with astonishing sharpness approaching the realm of medium format at a fraction of the cost.
The D800E became the tool of choice for landscape, architectural, studio, and fine art photographers who prioritized ultimate resolution over the slight risk of moiré inherent in the design. Even today, its files are highly regarded for their depth, dynamic range, and near-three-dimensional rendering of fine textures. Its robust magnesium alloy construction, weather-resistant sealing, professional control layout, and in-body AF motor driving the full range of Nikon F-mount lenses, including traditional screw-drive optics, make it a truly durable tool.
This particular example is especially desirable. With only 12,161 shutter counts, minimal use, and a significant portion of its mechanical life still providing the buyer with another high-resolution full-frame Nikon. Combining the genuine Nikon MH-25 charger with Japanese-made products presents a fantastic opportunity for collectors and demanding photographers.

Please note: The included battery is a third-party (ROWA) compatible unit, but the charger is the genuine Nikon MH-25.
