Took the D850 to Titchfield Haven with 500mm lens plus x1.4 very dull and birds all long way out so this is about 15% of the image ISO 1600. Camera works very quickly with the big lens focus tracking good. Detail with such a big blow-up is very good.

This is whole frame. Hope to have some much better pix soon but all looks very good so far, perhaps the D500 can go?

Graham ...is there noise reduction on that cropped image? The back bird appears to have a very smooth look....unless it was wearing make up. :-)

No noise reduction but it was misty rain falling and I think it killed some detail. I hold back till I've seen pix in good strong light.

Interesting. It's a very nice smooth bird...the ones here in Norfolk are a lot rougher (like most things up here) round the edges .

:lol:

Look forward to see how things progress...while I save my pennies. ;-)

It is really difficult to appreciate the detail in the images from the D850.
You need to look at the whole image then take a zoomed section out to show the detail.

The display on a screen (72dpi typically) or over the internet reduces the visible detail appreciably. I think that the only way to really see the detail is to print a large image and compare with a smaller MP image.

So the D850 is only going to be for large scale prints?

The on screen detail that Graham had in the little owl image from the humble D500 was astounding.

Not a good day for photography shooting through misty rain with a 700mm lens then looking at a very small area. Non of the pix were very good but simple tests in the road show the camera works well and produces good clean sharp pixs. Noise levels look very low but at this stage I have not done enough to see if they are the same or a bit better than the very good levels with the D500.

You have all seen what the D500 can do with the Kingfisher pixs and the same 500mm lens and ISO 3200.

I would expect the D500 images to be cleaner or with less noise than the D850 under the same conditions.
I stll need to shoot some flamenco pictures with the D850.
For me that will be the real test as it will be up against the D3S and D600 which produce fine images at ISO6400 with low noise (low is not the same as no!).

Early days I was too keen going out in a day with mist and rain. Test shots taken up the road look just as good as any recent Nikon DSLR and handling and auto focus are spot on.
