Nikon D5 Sample Photos up to ISO 3,276,800

This is Nikon's flagship full-frame DSLR.

The Nikon D5 is for professional photographers and enthusiasts who just have to get the best.
It includes a 20.8 megapixel CMOS sensor, their next-gen 153-point AF system and it's new image quality and detail thanks to its low light capabilities with sensitivity reaching ISO 3,276,800.

So here is the first look at Nikon's new flagship, see how it performs at high sensitivities up to it's maximum ISO of 3,276,800.

204800

819200

1638400

and finally, 3276800
So as you can see, it does look to be a great solution for low light applications such as sport photography and candid photo-journalism. It looks as though the Nikon D5 will be the best low light camera for now.

In my opinion, the ISO 3200 - ISO 64000 looked really good, excellent compared to many cameras, although the higher ISO levels looked to create very noisy images which aren't very suitable but it's amazing that technology has come so far, and it'll only get better.

Canons new budget-friendly T6 (1300D)

Canon has recently announced it's latest entry level DLSR
"Rebel T6" or as other people may call it, "1300D"
Mine is the Canon Rebel T5i, or it's called the Canon EOS 700D

Anyway the T6 is a relatively minor update to the rebel T5 (EOS 1200D) and adds a higher resolution LCD, white priority WB mode (which produces a more neutral colour in tungsten lighting). I used tungsten in one of my other skating shoots a while back.
It gives a 'food scene' mode which may give a softer lighting and automatically give a smaller aperture maybe? And it also gives Wi-Fi with NFC, which I really wish I had on my 700D as you can upload photos straight from your camera without having to put them onto a PC first off.

The T6 keeps the same 18MP, 9 point AF system and Full HD video capture, aswell as numerous scene and creative modes as its processor, which seems like a slight waste as not much has actually changed.

So if you were thinking of getting the 1200D and then wanted to wait for the 1300D then they may be no point in waiting and to just get the 1200D, it's a good, small entry-level camera which can be easy to use for many people.
