D810 vs 5DSr

[jaayres20]

I am not sure if I am seeing all of this right, but new full resolution test shots (jpegs) of the 5DSr are up on imaging resources and from what I see, the 5DRs blows the doors off of the D810 at ISO 6400. Again I might not be comparing the right images, but I think I am smart enough to figure it out and it ain't pretty for the D810.

I also made comparable screen grabs of the two.

I'd wait for the actual production copy of the 5DS R before passing judgement. I think this was discussed more than 22 days ago.

I was discussed a few weeks ago using a different camera. These are new samples. It is a "beta" version, but it is not going to be drastically worse.

"We had our first, very early sample of the Canon 5DS R 50MP monster a few weeks back, but the firmware was at an earlier stage of development, so we could only share crops with readers. We've now received a unit that produces fully-shareable images, although it's still considered a "beta" sample. Image quality could therefore still change between this and shipping retail samples, but it looks awfully darned good"

This looks very promising! Now I'm looking forward to delivery date

I keep on my computer samples IMAGING RESOURCE for several years, and I see that your tests are well representative of the real camera. I have no doubt that the new Canon 5DSr has better image in high ISO than the D810. In ISO100 is a different story though.

Why must everything be a competition?

They are two different cameras each with advantages and disadvantages for individual photographers.

I just looked at ISO 100 and the 5DSr looked a lot better there too. Much more detail, especially finer details due to the fine detail picture style. Or are you talking about the D810 having better dynamic range?

I think this is good news, don't you think? They are two different cameras, but they are very comparable being that they are both the high megapixel models from both companies. There is bound to be endless comparisons of the two.

Does anything else really matter?? :

Yes John, a lot of other things matter. Some other things are as important as DR and a few are even more important

Dpreview posted some studio comparison shots too.

As an avid CR forum reader, I don't believe you.

At least this means the 5DS and 5DS R will not disappoint.

Here is a link to a 5DSr DNG file that will work with ACR 6 and above.

I just downloaded that file. It is a pretty horrid image but is good to play with because it has so much contrast.

It is very malleable with much better shadow lifting and noise performance than my 1Ds MkIII, which until now has been the Canon 100iso benchmark.

I am pretty encouraged by this first file.

If you are not worried about the frame rate, the 5DR will be great for bird and nature photography with its turn-off AA filter. For far away birds and creatures, you can use it on 1.6xcrop and have the resolution of a 19.5 mpx APSC and smaller raw files, and with a flick of a switch go up to FF or H. I am excited about it.

 

[jaayres20]

The ability to raise shadows is definitely better than the 5D3. Not as good as the D810, but not bad at all in my opinion.

Perfect image to demonstrate DR use. I was very pleased how it reacted to bringing up blacks. The histogram did not indicate clipping but I could not get any details back in the white door - Used both exposure and hi light sliders.

Well, that is a radical improvement over the 5D III. I wouldn't expect it to have the same DR as the D810 with pixels that small, but still, that's the first decent improvement in Canon shadow noise that I've seen since the 6D.

When there is a real competition among manufacturers, the Customers are benefited by better products and "fair' prices
