My shot of the day so far ... water colors in the rain?

Thank you.  It's more bokeh-colors in the rain

Iso 3200 anyone? Z6, 35mm 1.4 @f4

Strong portrait, very expressive

Indeed.

Paco, do you find ISO3200 image of Z6 noticeably better than that of D750?

Was out running this evening. Will reproduce it with my Df soon

[golunvolo]

Thank you

  Akira, I haven´t try side by side but I have work with the d750 for a long time and a lot of that in the 1600-3200 region. The Z6 looks cleaner already on the camera´s screen. On top of that I´m using nikon NX-D instead of my usual lightroom and I don´t know if that influences the final output. If this portrait is the reference then yes, it is noticeable better. The file is pliable and shows little to no noise even in the dark areas. Colors are spot on and clean too.

  This is iso 3200. I´m very happy

Thank you for sharing your observation.  Now that I'm exclusiively on CNX-D, I notice that ACR removed the chrominance noise amazingly well even from an NEF of D750 shot at ISO12800, leaving almost only the luminance noise which is much less detracting than the chrominance noise (at least to me).  CNX-D seems to handle the chrominance and the luminance noises rather more evenly, so the chrominance noise is apprarent even in the NEF shot at much lower ISOs (like 1600 or 3200).

Not something I normally shoot  .  Just playing around with Nikkor 200 f4 Ai n Sony a7iii, Techart Pro stacked with Kipon Nik/LM adapter handheld at about 18 feet.  Big crop.  I normally shoot the lens on the Df/D500 or with dumb Novoflex adapter on Sony.   Also playing with Nik  RAW Presharpening but should have used control points

Impressive portrait, love the details on her skin, the veins on her forehead, her stare, the hand, the hair, wonderful moment

[golunvolo]

Thank you very much Armando and Frank. Happy you like it. Went for chiaroscuro with light from a window classic view. Mostly to test the camera-lens combo but I'm pleased with the result too.
   Frank, my screen is not calibrated so "a tad" in any direction may be off. I'll take your word for it.

from one computer to the next there are colour differences evidently
