[QUOTE="J-see, post: 454483, member: 31330"] None of my comment was directed at you. ;) When I increase ISO with my other cams I gain in the shadows (at the expense of the highlights). It'll show shadow detail which is not there when I take the shot (using the same A/S) at native ISO. It's hardly more than 2/3 stop dynamic range for the D750 but it's still gain. For my shooting style it always implied I have to accept a loss in the shadows. The same is no longer true for the D7200 (although I still have to fully test it). When upping the ISO on the D7200, it amplifies the photon count but there is no gain in the shadows. It flatlines all through the ISO range. Which is a good thing. It'll probably be different than the D7100 but every cam is different and they all require a different approach to processing. I process my D750 shots different than I process the D810 and again than the D7200. Although the basic approach is identical, if I want to get most out of my shot, I have to do it different for all. And usually that's the shadow or highlight region. If he says the shadow detail of the D7200 is horrible, I assume its his processing skill that is horrible. Here's a site where you find about everything important there is to know in regards to ISO, noise and DR and where you can compare about every cam.
