D850' DR and/or exposure latitude with sample

Post by Stany Buyle »

An image captured a couple of days ago in the fields next to my hometown.

The original scene:

Interesting in this picture, -at least to me-, is the exposure latitude D850 provides at low iso...

After +0.75 EV and active D-Lighting set to extra high2, NR swtiched OFF...

Image

And a crop from 1600px longest side resized to 1000px ls to fit on this forum.
:arrow: :idea: If you click on the image, you can open the 100% crop in 1602px longest side size.

I love 45Mp... :D

Even while underexposing and with NR swtiched off in Capture NX-D the image shows very little noise. It reminds me to my Nikon D7000... Kudos to Nikon!

About sharpness: There is some motion blur in the image due to the bird's flying speed. A faster shutter speed might have given more native sharpness but while this implies higher iso, the picture would have been worse because of noise.

Thanks for looking and kindest regards,
Stany
