At the time of its release, the Nikon D810 became the Dxomark image sensor leader[http://www.dxomark.com/Reviews/Nikon-D810-sensor-review-New-DxOMark-leader#6911 Nikon D810 sensor review: New DxOMark leader] DXOmark ahead of the Nikon D800E and received many reviews.[http://www.nikonindex.com/NikonFxStandard/Nikon-D810.html Nikon D810 tests, reviews, articles, ratings, and ranks] NikonIndex[http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/nikon-d810/nikon-d810A.HTM Nikon D810 Review] Imaging Resource

On August 19, 2014, Nikon acknowledged a problem reported by some users, of bright spots appearing in long-exposure photographs, as well as "in some images captured at an Image area setting of 1.2× (30×20)."{{Cite web|url=http://diglloyd.com/blog/2014/20140819_0755-NikonD810-service-advisory.html|title=Diglloyd blog: Nikon D810 Service Advisory for White Spots During Long Exposures, and 1.2X Crop}}{{Cite web|url=http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Service-And-Support/Service-Advisories/hyvanded/Technical-Service-Advisory-for-Users-of-the-Nikon-D810.html|title = Technical Service Advisory for Users of the Nikon D810 Service Advisory}} Existing owners of D810 cameras were asked to visit a website to determine whether their camera could be affected, on the basis of serial numbers. Repairs would be made by Nikon free of charge. If bright spots still appear in images after servicing, Nikon recommends enabling Long exposure NR. Products already serviced have a black dot inside the tripod socket.https://nikoneurope-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/61871 {{Dead link|date=March 2022}}

An astrophotography variant with a special infrared filter capable of deep red / near infrared and with special software tweaks like long-exposure modes up to 15 minutes, virtual horizon indicator and a special Astro Noise Reduction software was announced February 10, 2015.[http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/nikon-d810a/nikon-d810aA.HTM Nikon D810A Review -- First Impressions]{{cite web | url=http://www.nikon.com/news/2015/0210_dslr_01.htm | title=Digital SLR Camera D810A | access-date=February 11, 2015}} The D810A's IR filter is optimized for H-alpha (Hα) red tones, resulting in four times greater sensitivity to the 656 nm wavelength than the D810.{{cite web | url=http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/dslr-cameras/1553/D810A.html | title=DSLR for Astrophotography | access-date=February 11, 2015}} In comparison, Canon's astrophotography DSLRs 20Da and 60Da Hα sensitivity was 2.5 times and 3 times (respectively) more than the standard 20D / 60D.{{cite journal|last=Dyer|first=Alan|title=The 60Da: Canon's Astrophoto DSLR|journal=Sky & Telescope|issn=0037-6604|date=September 2012|volume=124|issue=3|pages=38–41}} The D810A additionally has 1.39 stops advantage due to the larger image sensor format {{ndash}} resulting in better than 2 stops sensitivity advantage giving over four times faster exposure times compared to the Canon 20Da/60Da.

Although the D810A can be used for normal photography, due to the deep red / near infrared sensitivity the in-camera white balance may fail in case of fluorescent light or difficult cases with very strong infrared light {{ndash}} requiring an external infrared filter. Nikon published an D810A astrophotography guide that recommends live view focusing with 23× enlarged selected areas[http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/microsite/astrophotography/tips/index.html Nikon D810A Shooting Guide: Astrophotography tips] Nikon and a gallery showing the mostly small effects to the color reproduction in "normal" photos.[http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/microsite/astrophotography/general/index.html Nikon D810A Shooting Guide: Color reproduction of the D810A with non-astronomical subjects] Nikon

A review concludes that especially the D810A long exposure noise is superior compared to the D800E and other Nikon fullframes, and shows effects of the increased H-alpha sensitivity. Color balance of "normal" photos seems mostly correct, except comparatively hotter objects with strong infrared radiation and a bit more purple in sunsets.[http://blogg.astrofotografen.se/2015/05/nikon-d810a-review.html Fotograf Göran Strand: Nikon D810A Review] Astrofotografen
