Unreasonable expectations

You can't crop an ISO 6400, 45mp photo down to 3mp and expect to see greatness.

I would have shot that closer to f/5.6 and 1/800 which would probably result in ISO 1600 (assuming the original was metered correctly). I would still not expect to be able to whittle the picture down to your crop, fill my 27" 4k monitor, and count the bears' eyelashes.
