More and more thread topics questioning the D800 36MP specs in relation to high ISO capabilities
Why
Why
The D800 was never intended to be a high iso/low noise camera!!!
It\'s not a sports car, it\'s a bloody pick up truck!
Why do people expect it to have low noise at high iso?
It \"only\" goes to ISO 6400 for a reason!
People did not complain about he D3X noise at high iso at 24MP, why do they do it with the D800?
The D3x only went to 1600!!! With 24MP! And it could be expanded to \"only\" 6400 maximum!
The D800 tops at 6400 NATIVE and can be expanded to 25.600!
The D4, on the other hand, not only goes way up to 12800 native but can be expanded to an insane 204.800!
The D800 IS NOT a high iso camera!
In face of these facts, why people are complaining is truly beyond me...
I can, however, understand if people complain that they would prefer something in the line of a D700 with a D4 sensor, that is to say an affordable camera with high iso capabilities.
But that is a whole different story.
And as it seems, rumors says that it\'s exactly what canon is planning on doing...
If they in fact do it (release two cameras, a very high MP camera and a 5D-style camera with the 1Dx sensor) then it will very, very well played on their part...
