That is still a very pleasing image and not really showing a lot of noise.  I think we are being spoilt by the latest set of cameras.

It's showing the amount of noise at iso1600, we now only accept at iso 6400+.

At the time I was very pleased with the D3X after my D2X it was a major improvement. I never went for the D3 but did get it's little brother the D300 still rated as one of Nikon's best DX cameras. My friend in Kenya Bob is still very happy with his as is my daughter Clare. At normal ISOs the D300 still takes super quality pixs. 

I agree JK they do all most photographers would ever need. I know if I was still working I would not be replacing them with Hasselblads latest 100 MP offering at £25,00 plus VAT for body only. A few years ago I  used the 50 MP Hasselblad when I was doing an RPS workshop and at the time the finished A3+ prints looked softer then the same subject I took with my then Nikon D810. Too be fair the owner may not have set it up very well and we did put his camera images into my laptop in rather a hurry. I would like to have a go with the new Hasselblad but would need more than the 1/2 hour had using the 50 MP model.

Great photo.  
I am looking at it on my 30" monitor and it looks like they are actually sitting on my desk!

I think this may be of interest I will let you into some inside info. This is the pix as shot at my friend Pete's place on the river Ichin N of Southampton, he keeps Owls and other birds. He is a very good photographer and lets other photographers (for a very reasonable fee) photograph his nearly tame birds in his wonderful wild wood. The jessies on they legs need to be retouched out. Pix is as stated with D850 and 80-400mm AF-S lens without x4 extender but at full 400mm and VR. This was towards end of our session with my late photographer friend Malcolm, light was fading so ISO 3200 1/250 sec at f6.3
