D800 images at iso 25600 are useable(sample)

Post by Stany Buyle »

D800 is not designed for being used as a high iso camera, but D800' high iso images at extreme high isos are useable.
You can find some occasional portraits -made as a test- here.

Yesterday I was in the equesterie next to where I live and -again as a test- I took some pictures at various high isos inside the stables, not really a lowlight situation but not at all "perfect light" neither...

Here is one of them:

The scene:

And a 35% crop of the image resized to 1024px longest side to fit on my forum:

The image was opened and postprocessed with Adobe photoshop Raw 6.7 Release Candidate
The cropped image at 35% was originally still 3829 x 2357 px

Iso 12800 is much better though, here underneath a sample image taken in the same stable, with crop.

And a crop as seen at 45% in Nikon CaptureNX, resampled to 1024 longest side to fit on this forum

Thanks for your attention and kindest regards,
