Hi zoom3
Where did you focus? Dress or head or somewhere else? And how did you resize your photo?

The eyes![]()
Nice camera ..........
your shots on page 1 looks more in focus to me. the 2nd set, I see that the dress is more in focus than the face/eyes.
Nevermind, the bottom line is - if you're happy with your shots then it's all that matters. Maybe I'm just expecting too much from this camera.
Ha ha. Is this a CSI investigation ? :bsmilie:
Here u go. 100% crop of the right eye from the first pic. No sharpening applied.
How many shooters can you see ?

In real world usage, it is quite rare you are going to be looking at a 100% crop, so I'd say it does its job like any other camera (maybe even better)Wow! Nice, shiny new toy![]()
Congrats!
The 100% crop shows up what I've seen so far in many real world usage of this camera.
The 36mp seems to demand that all conditions are fulfilled (ie. focus; no-shake; good lens; no subject shift) to get that tack sharp 100% crop that it is capable of.
The ideal conditions are more easily replicated in studios (fixed environments) and landscapes (time to properly setup)
When everything falls into place, the o/p is fantastic.
In real world situations like in your sample, 100% crops often turns up less sharp shots.
Do you have any thoughts on this? (ie. non-ideal real world usage as opposed to ideal controlled condition usage)

Thanks JK. Something new for me to play with. Enjoying it very much so far. But now have to spend some more money to upgrade my computer. The i5 750 with 4 GB memory slowed down noticeably when processing those 40 MB files. Just added another 4 GB and it seems to run faster and smoother. Will see how later when working with multiple layers. Can also do with a larger monitor to view all those 7360 x 4912 pixels in all it's glory, but don't think this will happen anytime soon :bsmilie:
Yes, agree with you that the setup has to be spot on to get that fantastic image. And from using the cam in the past few days, this is very obvious. If you look at the Nikon technical guide, they emphasized that to obtain the best picture quality, a sturdy tripod should be used and live view to avoid any mirror shake. With the D800, everything is so sharp that when any part of the image is slightly off, it is very obvious. Nothing new to all the MF users I guess.
Will try to do some landscape this weekend but in the meantime, here is one I took last weekend. Among the first few photos I took with this cam. I am particularly impressed with the cropped photo of Peninsula. This with a 50mm, handheld !
Note that none of these photos have been sharpened.
