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...
And a crop from 1600px longest side resized to 1000px ls to fit on this forum.


I love 45Mp...


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,
