With exif removed even more fun. A good exercise to keep gear lust in check I think.

Should be interesting to see the guesses. :)

First the entire scene (used from IR's samples)

And a 100% crop of the scene...



Good luck!

I'll say K5 ISO 6400
 
Looks like my Nikon P7000 at 100 ISO but how about K-r at ISO 800
 
I guess it's the K20D (shadow from the eves gives it away).

For the ISO/noise, it looks like the ISO6400 shot (luminence), but maybe youve run it through a NR routine to remove the chroma noise?
 
K7 1600
 
K10D ISO 400 -- "educated guess" based on recent posts about how great the K10D was for its day (a camera with which I have NO experience, but which sounds like, for its time, was quite a shooter).

Initially I thought Pentax Kx but due to slight better DR profile I'm 100% confident it's the Pentax Kr.

Assuming you have not meddled with the image.

If you have meddled with the image it could be any camera from the Q through MX-01 or any other 12Mp camera.

That's the beauty of Jpeg its a great leveller.!

*istD, 1600 ISO?

Neat when we are just judging with our eyes and monitors, isn't it?


I think its a good small lesson with gear and how we all (myself included) nitpick image quality.

Obviously the K20D like many cameras, are highly capable that were introduced from 2006 onward.

Correct Walt, that's the K20D at ISO 6400- ACR processing, Imaging Resource credit for the image.

Default NR on ACR (chroma 15 on the slider and no luminescence NR).
