Amplification does not help on its own with signal / noise.  Pre-amplification lowers rounding errors though.\

Thank you. It didn't even occur to me to order from Amazon :-D

It should have been off, at least I did not notice it coming on. But I will check.

Bambou : you've played enough with that thing you're holding pay attention to me instead Taken with a flash so it's hard to tell by looking at the picture but the image was shot in pitch dark. I ...

Thank you ! It hasn't done anything bad to my past Nikon cameras, and I've never read any feedback in the Nikon forums about the cleaning triggering some malfunction over the years. From there I ...

Uh oh, right here in this very thread

I use clean at startup and shutdown. I would at least do the cleanup at shutdown.

Tough call !

Between you and me updating to a D850 was nothing rational ... :-D That's a classic ! I've seen it !

Yes it wouuld have been faster with BB. But mine came today as well ! 2.5 hour now :-D I like the back screen, the vf, the larger af area. I have to get used to its shape. The D810 is still more ...

No idea !

It was mentioned as a minus for the D850  in a review I've read comparing D810 and D850. Can't remember which one.

That's the gist of it. If you want to minimize noise. Sometimes we make other choices. I do not agree because changing ISO to get the brightness you want in the final image without changing ...

So it works well, then ? That's something I am very curious to try out.
