The Rollieflex gave it a good go Graham but as you say the D500 has the edge.

Yes but400 ISO HP5 only suitable for press photography. I still get good pixs at 3200 ISO with both my DSLRs also the use of zoom lens to compose. My Rollei was upstaged very soon by Hasselblad to get the range of lenses and back changing for b&w or colour shot of the same pix.

When I started working as a sports photographer I was using Fuji 800iso Colour print Film pushed to 3200 as the lights at Newcastle falcons was like six candles.

Ian most of my working life I was doing advertising or commercial so I used studio flash a lot even on location. I also shot a lot of 4x5 or even 8x10, 50 or 100 ISO was the order of the day I had never used high ISO until the last 5 years doing bird photography!

This is B&W off above colour image, interesting how much darker the sky is compared to the Rollei pix below. Perhaps should have used orange filter with the Rollie?

Am I seeing banding in the sky on that image Graham?

It may be down to the viewers screen resolution, I am seeing (I think) very slight faint banding here on my high res iMac screen but more of a concern is the strong faded halo on the left hand side sky to masonry junction.  What's causing that???  It caught my eye immediately.

Edit:

I just looked at it with my MacPro which currently has a 1080 screen, the banding is more visible.

I have said this for years that some of the effects we 'think' we see, are really interactions between resolution, screen pixel pitch, and image resolution.
I cant see the banding on my iPad Pro or on my MacPro 30' high resolution (2048x1280 used, 2560x1600 max res.).

Looks like there ARE bands in that sky - more noticeable if you defocus your eyes.

I can see something there but it is not obvious banding unless I downgrade the image resolution to 1080 as Robert says.

I dont pretend to understand this as it seems real but I need convincing it is not an interaction of screen resolution and final resolution of the saved image.
