Nikon Announce the NQR

[Steve Axford]

But nit new, top of the line, Andrew. I could write slower if that would help.
But seriously, why join in when you just want an argument? Surely we have better things to do. You could use your Nikon D5 and I could use my A7R2

I'm not understanding either here Steve.

D5's sensor is Nikon's newest top of the line sensor.
It may not have the megapixel count of the D8xx series, or doesn't come close to Sony's nor Canon's newest megapixel sensors .. but it's about as new tech as new gets.


Traditionally Nikon's used to use Toshiba to do the fabrication of their lower Mp top line sensors.
I'm not saying that this is the case .. just what's generally happened in the past .. and hence possibly currently.


anyhow! .. discussing the sensors and who manufactures them is getting way off the topic this thread began with.

To be quite honest, Arthur, there has been far to much written here for me to be bothered reading. I'm just not interested in a D5, which seems to be directed at a very small group of sports photographers - but I could be wrong. Anyway, nuf argument. I've got some photos to take.
