OP: one thing I would recommend in this and any thread: look at the posters\' work, and do not take any equipment advice from anyone whose photography is not up to your standards.
There are tons of people on the web willing to give free advice and complain about equipment. Problem is many of them have either a) never used it, or b) are not skilled photographers and blame equipment for things which they should not.
Again, the 5D cameras would not have been such a smash success if they were riddled with banding. You mess up the exposure by a long shot, you might have issues though. Miss it by a stop or two, and you will be fine.
Try it for yourself. And like I said, research those you are taking equipment advice from. My personal feeling is if someone can\'t take a picture, then I don\'t want to hear what they have to say about cameras. ;-)
funny you mention that since some who have noted that it has lower DR than the D800 also have some of the more extensive galleries, including Fred himself....
just saying....
now maybe the DR doesn\'t matter for everyone and even if it does it\'s not the end of the world there are other aspects but enough with the veiled insults and nonsense already
and for the 100th time it is NOT about proper exposure, that is duh, a given, it\'s when a proper exposure still leaves you stuck, duh
