Great first impressions with that camera!

Here are a few more pics I took this morning (untouched) in Rock Canyon in Provo Utah.

Were you able to open the RAW files in Adobe?

When you get a chance, please take some shots at ISO 12k and higher!

I just received mines from my local camera shop I shall post test images soon.

Yes I can open the full size raw files in PS. Here is a high ISO pic:

Thank you for posting those. I went into my local camera shop today and they said they were expecting another 5 D850s next week.

I looked on ebay just to see if anyone was scalping D850's, they are trying to get between $4000.00 and $6000.00, mostly sellers from Japan.

 

[Paulfpb]

Yea, I saw that too. The price on Amazon hasn't changed tho.

Nice shot. I was wondering if there was a reason why you took this shot at F3.5? Not making any criticism, always trying to learn. Thanks

Many times the lens will show better detail when you don't shoot it at it's fastest F stop. I'm not positive that's the case with this lens, but it is often true.

I think the question was more about why you made a landscape shot at such a wide aperture instead of f8 or f11. I've tested most of my lenses and somewhere around f8 seems to be the sharpest on all of them. Most landscape shooters want sharpness and depth of field.

The picture looks great, so what you did obviously worked.

 

[Paulfpb]

That's a great point and maybe you can educate me. I thought that since the stuff I was photographing was petty far away that the depth of field would't be an issue at 2.8. Is that true, or should I as as general practice in the future set the f-stop to f8 or f11?

After reading your link I see what you are referring to, and thanks for the info. Last night I sent this photo to Costco to print a 16x20 so I will get to see just how sharp it is - ha ha.

Thanks,
Paul

I'm certain you will be happy with your print. As I wrote above, it does look good.

I just picked up the poster (16x20) from Costco - it looks fantastic!! This is the picture I had printed:
