It is said that Nikon shoots landscapes, so is the D850 with the original lens better than the Canon 5D series for shooting portraits?

It is said that Nikon shoots landscapes, so is the D850 with the original lens better than the Canon 5D series for shooting portraits?

When I see this question, I actually want to say that there is no comparison.

Yes, a good camera does not mean that the photos produced are good.

We should know that cameras in the past few decades are definitely not as good as some of our current brand models, but there were still a large number of excellent works in that era, which we still cannot surpass.

Yes, the Nikon D850 should be one of the best models at the moment. It performs very well in all aspects and is in a leading position in overall performance. It is indeed much better than the Canon 5D4. This is our It cannot be denied.

However, can we say that the works shot by D850 must be better than those shot by 5D4?

No one is sure about this decision.

We often say that an excellent work is composed of many factors, and equipment is only one aspect. For example, half-frame cameras have produced a large number of excellent works in the past few years. Most of the award-winning works in the Dutch competition were shot with half-frame cameras. Can we say that half-frame cameras cannot produce good works?

The title says that Nikon is suitable for shooting landscapes, which mainly refers to the high sharpness and bright colors of Nikon cameras. In fact, the D850 is a very good equipment for shooting landscapes because it has excellent latitude and image quality. Delicate and excellent at low sensitivities.

In the past, we said that Canon is very suitable for shooting portraits. In fact, during the trial process, I found that the Nikon D850 is also quite good at shooting portraits because it has changed the previous algorithm and the image processing system is different, so it Photographing portraits is also completely different from our previous understanding. The portraits taken with it are also pretty good in terms of skin tones.

In fact, the difference in shooting between cameras has a lot to do with the lens. The resolution of the lens, the difference in lens lenses, and the difference in special lenses used all affect the imaging.

Actually, the main difference in our works lies in the people we photograph. We once joked that the most important thing is the head behind the camera. Yes, the equipment is just a tool for our creation. To produce works, It is also related to a series of our personal culture, cultivation, knowledge, aesthetics...

We can envy people who use high-end equipment, but we must not underestimate a person who uses an ordinary camera.

As long as we create with heart and care, I believe we will produce excellent works.

I used the Nikon F3 in the 1980s. At that time, many people commented on the color and sharpness of Nikon and Sunon. In fact, some people’s eyes could not see it. The early pictures were very bright and the picture quality was very good. Well, the human eye can't tell the difference between the films that can be taken with the falcon and the early Nikon films. Now it's like: take pictures outside, and make noise online when you go home. It’s as if everyone’s eyes have instruments. Practicing the basic skills of photography is hard work. Understand beauty, where does beauty come from: angle, light, composition, creativity. If you use the equipment skillfully, you will be good at it. As for The sharpness of the lens and the beautiful colors are all created by speculation. Let us take pictures without any interference! Middle-aged people can only be photographed by a falcon, and baby photos can only be taken by a Nikon. Anyone who comments online is biased.

People say that Nikon colors are lighter and more natural, while Canon colors are more gorgeous and dynamic. I think this is just a statement without any underlying truth.

From the original intention of each manufacturer, they all strive to restore the true nature of colors, which can be reflected in their respective RAW format image output. However, the sensor (CMOS) and the three primary color restorations each have their own sources and algorithms, which will bring about slight differences. Don't think that people (non-professional image processors), especially old mages, can tell the difference.

The so-called straight-out, there are no photos that are straight-out now (except RAW), all pictures output by the camera have been filtered, even if you choose the simplest shooting mode, such as standard Or something.

So the conclusion is: it is a false proposition to tell whether a photo is good or bad! Regardless of landscapes, portraits, or humanities. It’s better to spend some energy on shooting and post-production!

I feel that the Nikon 850 is better than the Nikon 5D4 in direct portrait photography. The conditions should be taken by the same person. The two photography skills, post-production reasons, etc. cannot be compared.

1. Comparing the two brands of Nikon and Canon today, Nikon D850 is definitely better than Canon 5D4 in all aspects, but not as good as Canon 1DX2.

2. Except for the master, the human eye cannot see the difference between the two cameras. I can’t tell what brand of camera this was taken with.

3. For ordinary photography hobbies and non-professional commercial photographers, do not pursue high image quality and high definition. When choosing cameras and equipment, you don’t have to worry too much about professional analysis and instrument testing performance. Just use them yourself.

4. It is better to choose light equipment. This is my idea. Bulky equipment is difficult to control and carries heavy weight.

5. Learning photography techniques is very important. Good equipment does not necessarily produce good films. The photography skills are high, and there will be blockbusters on mobile phones.

The above ideas were only thought of after the photography training process. They are for reference by friends. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The photos taken from any camera are terrible!

This was taken with Canon 350D, when I was just starting to take up photography

This was taken with Canon 20D

This was taken with Sony A7

p>

The above three grades of cameras cannot be seen with the naked eye.

The skin color of Nikon portraits is not as good as that of Canon. It’s not that it’s more expensive. For portraits, it’s better to buy Canon! The skin color of 6d2 portraits is good, but the skin color of 5d4 portraits is not as good as that of 6d2. The following is the original picture taken by Canon 200d, the most entry-level camera. You can’t take such skin color with any Nikon camera!

5D is for you It also depends on who you are competing with and what lens you use.

I mentioned the D850 by name, but you didn’t tell me how much the Canon 5D costs?

In terms of straight-out picture quality, all 5D cameras are used.

In terms of color reproduction, all series before the 5DIV are the same.

In terms of skin color restoration, all 5D models are the same.

Except for those with beauty Apart from the facial and skin tone retouching system, I don’t think the D850 has any disadvantages.

However, it is meaningless to talk about the body alone. You also have to look at the lens and environment.

In fact, if you don’t post-process, watching the 5D series on a computer is not too impressive, but Canon’s screen is so fragrant and blessed.

The current opponent of D850 should be 5DIV

When you are discussing the body, don’t forget to study what lenses to feed them

This is a misunderstanding, and it is even more misleading. . Nikon's lenses are sharp, while Canon's lenses are fleshy. In terms of characteristics, a sharp lens will certainly be good for scenery, and a fleshy lens will certainly be nice for portraits with delicate skin. This comes from the different image trends for the same photosensitive medium in the film photography era. In the era of digital cameras, the photosensitive medium was changed to CMOS. How to record the incoming light and shadow was determined by the camera body manufacturer's algorithm. All parameters of image recording can be adjusted, such as Nikon landscape, Canon portrait, Fuji Humanity, and Huller. Well, the core theory is the same, the values ??calibrated by each manufacturer are just different and can be adjusted. Nikon's portraits are no worse than Canon's, and Canon's scenery is no worse than Nikon's. The research on optical imaging still depends on the accumulation of traditional optical equipment manufacturers and the capabilities of digital simulation.

Canon, Nikon, Sony

Volkswagen Toyota Nissan

I insist that Nikon is better than Canon

When serving food to people, eat whatever you like sweet, eat whatever you like salty, eat whatever you like spicy, the camera is just a tool, the important thing is the head behind the camera
