^ Well that just blew my photog budget for the next 6 months.......(thankfully Nikon hasn't put that sensor in the D4 body, at least not yet. That would blow my budget for the next 2 years )

Lance, those are some exceptional shots. Birds are very prone to showing noise in images, yet those shots look great. And ISO 12800 for that first one? Looks clean as ISO 400 on the cameras I'm used to! Any chance you'll be doing any sports photos, or at least people running? I'd love to see how the camera deals with ISO 6400-25600 on moving people.

Thank you very much for your lovely comments, Lauchlan!
I will be doing some soccer photos in the next few weeks.
Did you use highlight weighted metering? Also, have you found any differences between NXD and Adobe Camera RAW?
I haven't used highlight weighted metering yet. I should have used it on the cockatoo shots. I think ACR is better than NXD, but that could be because I find ACR easier to use.
I've noticed 'jaggies' on some high contrast angled lines with ACR that don't show up on NX-D processed RAW images.
I haven't noticed this yet, but I will keep an eye out for it.
I agree with you. Adobe Camera is easier to use than NX-D, and FWIW...I brought a RAW D810 image into NX-D and then converted it to a full size 16-bit Adobe RGB TIFF, (with no adjustments) and then tweaked it in ACR...this time, no jaggies. Since ACR is a 'release candidate', I'll give my input to Adobe.
Thanks my friend, it was well worth the getting wet and getting the lens all wet for.

This isn't a studio, it's a golf course during cocktail hour at my clients wedding. This was taken in the pouring rain, with just them under their umbrellas and a radioed SB-900 behind them each to bounce off the umbrellas to create the shot. No studio work here. I don't even own a studio lol
