[QUOTE="nikonbill, post: 843095, member: 47024"] In an attempt to illustrate the need for a digital "darkroom" (editing software) I found a site where an article was written with downloadable files from a Nikon Z8 showing "noise performance" with different examples. When viewing the files zoom in and see "noise" is still there and would still require further "processing" to meet today's standards. My point is a better camera will do better at noise but will not eliminate it. The digital darkroom is still needed even with top shelf gear.
