In my previous post I published 2 photographs of my kids, to celebrate the arrival of my Nikon D3x. But it is indeed impossible to assess the quality of a camera and/or lens on a tiny image in a blog post. Therefore, I’m herewith posting a 100% zoom of a detail of Myrte’s head.
The image is photographed with a 85mm Tilt/Shift lens, so it’s manual focus. Although I probably would have wanted the eyes to be a little sharper, I think it’s still pretty acceptable considering we’re looking at an image at 100% magnification (which comes down to roughly the size of an A2 for the intire image).
Nonetheless, look at the sharpness and crispness of the image, especially Myrte’s hair and eyebrows. I also don’t notice any color fringing at the edges (also thanks to the great lens used).
Needless to say I’m happy with the results and I’m looking forward to the journey with my D3x.
