Nikon D850 - A Details Monster


It has been a tremendous 3 months of photography after I started using the Nikon D850. All my other Nikon Full Frame DSLRs have all taken a back seat when I am out and about busy photographing for my clients or for my own personal enjoyment.

This will be the last blog on the D850 for the year and in this blog I just wanted to share with you my personal experience with the huge & fine amount of details that the D850 captures irrespective of the Nikkor lenses that are in my arsenal.

I have mentioned numerous times that I found all my lenses performing better when paired with the D850. It really does not matter what time of day the image was captured, details captured are just :

- finer

- cleaner

- have better edge definition

- have better overall resolution

So here are a few images which I had captured very recently. I hope they show you clearly what I mean. Best to view the images in this blog using an iPad Air 2 in landscape format to appreciate the details or click on the image to access the FLICKR LIGHTBOX Version.

All of the images shared in this blog were :

- captured with the Nikkor 80-400mm f4.5/5.6 (with the exception of one)

- JPEG FINE* was used

- hand-held in most cases (unless otherwise mentioned)

All images went through my regular post processing workflow which included sharpening when & where required.

Wishing all my readers a very Happy 2018 !!!
