I am a baby-shooting party. How to choose between D800 and 5D3? Is there any basis for the claim that the D800 has high pixels and is difficult to hold? 5D3 What is the impact of the test linkage?

First of all, from a professional perspective, the higher the pixels, the lower the score.

There are three factors that affect the score:

First, when the CMOS size is the same and the processor computing power is similar, the higher the pixel brush, the worse the natural resolution.

Second, the higher the pixels, the greater the computing burden on the processor, and the slower the continuous shooting speed.

Third, the higher the pixels, the larger the capacity of the photo file format, and taking a photo takes up more computer inventory. The larger the photo file, the more storage space it takes up, and the greater the burden on the computer for post-retouching.

So Canon’s top 1DX pixel 1800W and Nikon’s top D4 pixel 1600W.

Top cameras use this pixel for “professional-level considerations.” After the pixel exceeds the “balance point,” the higher the value, the lower the evaluation score.

The two problems of sharpness and softness can be compensated for by camera parameter settings and computer post-processing. They are not included in the effective comparison parameters between D800 and 5D3 and are ignored.

Talk about focusing:

5D3 is very user-friendly and has a relatively wide focus point coverage, and the focusing speed is very fast and resolute!

The D800's electronic metering is accurate (but it is completely useless for people who use M manual gear to shoot). The focusing speed is slower than that of the 5D3, but it can have a focus fill-in function in low-light environments ( Canon requires an external original flash to have focus fill light).

Talk about continuous shooting:

If the 5D3 uses JPG format for continuous shooting, it can achieve unlimited continuous shooting at a constant speed of 6 frames per second.

Due to the high pixel count, the D800’s continuous shooting speed is slow. When continuous shooting is continued, it can only reach the maximum continuous shooting speed in the first second, and the subsequent continuous shooting speed will decrease.

Talk about ISO sensitivity:

5D3 ISO3200, no pressure at all, 6400, slightly noisy

D800 ISO1600, almost no pressure, 3200, noise starts to increase significantly

The advantage of 5D3 in terms of ISO sensitivity is still very obvious

Speaking of fill light:

D800 has a built-in flash. This is a setting that "laymen praise, insiders criticize" because Such a rubbish "simple built-in flash" effect has no other meaning in the eyes of professionals other than "ruining a good photo". I can guarantee that if D800 users are professional photographers, some of them will never use a flash in their lives. But for laymen, it is at least a "temporary light filling device" in a place with extremely dark light. No matter how bad the photos you take are at least better than "no photos at all"

5D3 can only be used with external devices flash.

But you have to know that you absolutely cannot use flash to take pictures of your children! ! ! !

The child’s eyes can’t stand it! !

To sum up, if you mainly shoot children, I still recommend 5D3. The main reasons are as follows:

1. Fast focusing and fast continuous shooting speed. For naughty children Children, capturing photos and focusing are still more important.

2. The ISO is high, and when shooting indoors with a large aperture, it can be perfectly photographed in dark conditions. There is no need to turn on high-intensity indoor lights or flashes, and it will not cause any harm to children's eyes. burden.

As for software, it is recommended to download Adobe’s Lightroom and PS CS6 software.

LR is a color master, and RAW format images are also perfectly compatible.

PS CS6 is the last generation of cracked version of PS that everyone can still use

From now on, Adobe's PS CC will be the photo editing software provided by the cloud server. Do not buy the genuine version. The entrance is unusable...

So I really like the PS CS6 stand-alone version, this is the last song
