Women will hate D800 *full size image*

[poias]

Look at her lower lips area at 100% :'( This camera is not meant for taking portraits of women. :-X

ROFL that is sharp!

 

[briansquibb]

Seems to me to have been over sharpened

That, or the detail is simply overpowering. Probably a combination of both rendering a disgusting photo of a beautiful woman.

A few more pictures like that showing the D800 capabilities and the 5DIII will be the best seller

I don't think it's been over-sharpened. Looks like a bad light set-up, or she needs to shave her lower lip next time. It looks really bad, as a portrait.

That's MHO

May be that will be 5D3's marketing line: we render soft images, so your models' faces will appear silky smooth!

I suppose I'm the only one who finds women with facial hair rather sexy Distracting facial hair aside, this is one of the better sample image, IQ wise, from the D800 I've seen thus far.

I agree. Given the already intense detail, narrow aperture, and 85mm right on the face, the lighting illuminating the hairs are not going to help either.

I agree IQ wise, D800 is in another league. But the subject here is really not being portrayed in the most flattering manner.

To me her eyes look out of focus. Not enough lip hair touch ups lol.

UPDATE. Sorry I looked at it on my ipad and it didnt look too sharp. On my real monitor though..... in the words of George Takei "ohhh myyy". Looks like a good camera for landscape and a lots of post work camera for studio. Other shots on that website are similar detail.

Maybe this sort of ugly reality can stop the mindless megapixel war.

 

[Stephen Melvin]

There are definite sharpening halos in that shot.

 

[Arkarch]

Kinda furry above the lips too.

No worries. Its just a new Twilight look.

WOW! a peach-fuzz model was ideal to see the detail capability of that system. This is gonna send models and their makeup artists out to buy microscopes to work on them before a shoot! ;D (try a Mantis Elite for that, actually)

And you can really see just how shallow a DoF 85mm at f/8 really has, tip of her nose is quite OoF.

I'm really itchin' to place an order for one of these things just so I can see all the discarded cigarette butts littering a landscape shot.

Now, i would like to see a landscape shot, with full sun and some clouds in the scene and shadow detail in the woods or under a deeply shaded area using a 50mm or wider at about f/8 to 11. (yes, a bit past DLA but that'll be a given)

 

[Bennymiata]

Man, does she need a shave or what!

Nice looking girl too.

Obviously the lighting just emphasised the hair on her face.
Maybe the photographer should have used a good soft box.

In the world of fashion, what you get on a cover has been edited at the sub pixel level. That's why they use medium format with 40+mp for shooting women 8)

I agree with what others said that the light is making the facial hair, which all women have, glow and show more than usual. either make the light softer, chang the angle, or hand her a razor ;D

so the D800 is well suited to the task of photographing women so that they can be photoshopped into goddesses.

BTW the resolution of the D800 is FREAKING STUNNING!!!
