Definatelt the d800 lived up to my expectations. I had the choice of going back to canon and get the 5d mark iii but after reading the reviews about how faulty the camera is and canon needs to improve, with all the hobbyists critics i decided to back off couldnt afford to take the risk
First of all congrats on your new baby
. I had a play with the D800 just recently that's why I shared my thoughts with it. Yes the noise level is pretty good but for me its not noticeable with a 8x11 print which I do sometimes.
Anyway I might wait another year until the prices goes down or I get the 24mm 1.8G instead.
I checked the price today and its $3399 AUD
