[QUOTE="lokatz, post: 637491, member: 43924"] Hi Vincent, I agree with your conclusion that his type of work may not have required the highest IQ. Newspapers and magazines, for example, usually print images at sizes where you could hardly see the differences between these settings, anyway. For the D800, file sizes for 12-bit compressed are spec'd at 29MB, while 14-bit uncompressed is 74.4MB. For traveling reporters, the biggest issue today is not necessarily image storage but image transfer - uploading large images to the web takes ages in some places. The question why he goes for a D850 is interesting, though. My guess is it may not be resolution or highest IQ but the overall package. The D850 is a relatively lightweight full-frame camera that does exceptionally well in almost any shooting situation. I am craving it, too, and I have absolutely no need for its resolution (though I like the IQ). :) [/QUOTE]
