Re: Poor Test Samples?

As posted by many earlier the new sensor need light so when it is dim just ETTR by 2/3to 1EV. This helps to have a good SNR thus reduces noise if too present. Moreover and more generally correct exposure  is important since the 40mpx will reveal clearly bad exposures (especially underexposure)

Then focus is crucial since any approximation on focus results in soft images. Post production as well has to be conducted with more care, especially denoise and sharpening. There is some learning curve to get good results. Finally the big advantage here is cropping ability: a crop of the center of the image (between 3*3 and 5*5 zone) has still 2mpx which is excatly the minimum required to fill a UHD screen.

These concerns might account for some average IQ in some samples. Serious reviewers have generally quoted veri high the results they obtain. Since the se,nsor does not forgive approximation, users need to acquire a bit of experience to squeeze all the juice from the files. Sure in a few weeks/months you will see astonishing examples
