[QUOTE="Rob22, post: 669324, member: 44866"] Hello all, I am very much an amateur photogropher. I have been shooting interiors for a few years on my D3300 with a tokina 12-28 to help market my small kitchen business.I usually shoot in manual on a tripod and try to use soft boxes if possible. I have wanted to purchase an Fx camera for at least a year now, and recently after a dissapointing (noisey) photoshoot, I finally justified the purchase of a D610, as everything I have read leads me to believe that this camera would have superior low light performance when compared with my D3300. I managed to pick up a D610 with a few batteries etc, and more importantly for me a 16-35 1:4g ED I took the camera to a local well respected camera shop to have the sensor cleaned as there were a few dust spots. They confirmed that the camera has been well looked after and is in good working condition. I did a few side by side test shots to compare and with exactly the same settings and conditions ( adjusted for focal length) the D610 seemed to produce consistantly darker images. It just feels that when compared with the D3300 the light meter on the D610 is always showing as under exposed, and when I try to compensate for it the iso ends up sky high. I shot a bedroom interior for the first time with the D610 today and it was a reasonably well lit with 2 windows letting a lot of light in. I was shooting in manual and enjoying the auto-iso function. I did not have my tripod with me and I was on f7.1 and 1/100 sec, the auto iso was being set around the 4000 mark. When I checked the images I found not only were they too underexposed for my liking, but also the noise was very visible. I am sure that If I had shot this same room with my D3300 under the same conditions, I would have achieved the correct exposure and without any noticable noise. So my questions are as follows... Are the Fx cameras supposed to generally work at higher iso when compared with a Dx camera at the same settings? Am I missing something? Please see the attached images (excuse the content of the picture it is just a store room.) They were both taken with the following settings. ISO800 21mm (D610) 14mm (D3300) f11 1/8sec Can anyone offer any suggestions? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
