New toy tool has arrived. I'm pretty baffled. I had no specific expectations except it's a great camera, but that was out of doubt already.
I also don't want to create a new "test", "review" "hands-on" or whatever as there are already billions of these things around. My impressions are mixed. It shares the "50" with the D750. And the shutter sound reminds me more on that body than on the D810. "bang" versus "whopp", it sounds much sharper and also louder. So, the silent shutter is a possibility. But for what I wanted it - dark scenes, superfast AF (both will work, I'm pretty sure) silent shutter is no option, due to slow LiveView AF and rolling shutter effects. But who knows, maybe it's not that bad.
Very nice: This camera makes a difference between the 24-105 Sigma Art and the 105 Micro Nikkor - both were the same for the D810.
Touchscreen - a.ma.zinggg! :wub:
High ISO - wow. ISO finetuning (shorter or longer shutter speeds than the reciprocity rule 1/FL) I haven't found at the moment.
AF microadjustment - that is strange: I tried a couple of lenses which I had to adjust, Nikkors as well as Sigmas. With this camera most of them are suddenly spot on or close to. No explanation for that at the moment, except I did a lot of close-ups or close range. Tomorrow I want to try a bit more with this focusing stuff. It's weird, but welcome. I just think, I'm a bit mislead at the moment.
When I wanted to import the first files for XQD card, I couldn't see them. So I had to copy them to the SD-card which was pretty quick. Neither Capture One, nor digital images on Mac could recognize the XQD card.
