It's a very nice camera to operate. Must have some serious processing power, reviewing images on rear screen smooth and fast - touch screen viewing pics tap to zoom in / out flick left / right to browse - no stutter, no lag. Sensor seems good so far. Haven't used it at work yet, will start on Monday, but I scanned a colour neg and converted using my usual process in Photoshop and the orange mask was corrected out far more easily than normal - this is a very good sign for colour depth. Highlight retention seems exceptional. Any noise is mainly luma - also very promising. Optical viewfinder is very nice. Time will tell, but so far so good!
Thank you for the info!!
I said if i take some more time to learn about photography, I will treat myself to D850. But as a noob and just a hobby I can't justify it just yet.
I could barely justify buying the 24-70mm and 105mm micro this week, but i did (i really wanted to capture that crown in glass hahahaha and i did!!)

It's an art and science on its own and i admire your (all of you pros and serious hobbyists) knowledge and skills. Your photo is amazing!
