Got the D500 on Friday, shot these on Saturday

With the Tamron 150-600 telephoto.
Mostly cloudy, overcast skies in the morning and I was shooting in the wood.
I still found an unacceptable (to me) amount of graininess in most of the photos over ISO800.
Higher ISO is nowhere near as bad as my previous camera (D5200), but it's still an issue you need to deal with, if you want sharp (low noise) photos when shooting in low light or high shutter speeds.
Overall, I'm very happy with everything, except the fact that I needed to download a DNG converter to use the new "lossless" compressed files in my LR5. Thanks to Moab Man for helping resolve that issue!
