[QUOTE="ISOhappy, post: 668201, member: 44145"] Thanks for the update. I also have the D850 and D7200. From what I've seen, if I have to crop to at least DX size, I'm still better off using a DX camera like the D7200. A full-sized image from the D7200 is 24 mp, while a D850 DX mode shot is 19.4 MP. While not a huge difference 24 > 19.4. I did a quick test last night at very high ISO (see here): [URL]https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/61156720[/URL] Finally, there is this [ATTACH=CONFIG]287084._xfImport[/ATTACH] Both cameras are very close, but the 7200 has a slight edge. Of course, if I could fill the FX frame with the D850, it wins every time. Unfortunately, I can't do that. In the end, I think either camera can provide very nice looking crops (at DX size or smaller), but I figure, why lug around the D850 brick, when I can do the same thing with the D7200. I give up some features like better AF and fps in exchange for lighter weight. At any rate, it's nice to have both. [/QUOTE]
