>>4218540>it still retains more detail in shadows, more detail in highlights, As for this claim, go visit this pages and download the RAW files.
https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canon-eos-5ds-sr/11Note that dpreview did NOT use NR on the 5DsR files, and bitched about the DR because of noise in the shadows. Yet it shows more DR than any color film, or any regularly developed B&W film, without NR. The noise in the pushed files is honestly no worse than film grain. Apply some NR and it's gone.
The D810 they were comparing it to in order to make their point about 5Ds/5DsR DR...along with any modern FF sensor (R5, R6, A7R III/IV, A7 III/IV, D850, Z7, etc.)...doesn't even need NR in the shadows. You go right ahead and try to hold a sun-in-frame landscape with deep shadows on film when the sun is not heavily attenuated by the atmosphere (fog/clouds). It's not going to happen. GND filters existed for a reason anon. They're not needed any more with digital.
>captures a bigger color spaceAnother bullshit claim. The very first DSLRs on the market had superior color accuracy and a wider color space. Basically it evolved like this...
- first 6-8mp DSLRs: better color accuracy and wider gamut than film. Sharper than most 35mm but not as much fine detail as slow speed slide film and slow speed B&W.
- first 12mp FF DSLRs: completely passed up 35mm on sharpness and fine detail.
- first 14-bit ADCs: starting to match the best films on DR.
- first on-chip 14-bit ADCs: blew film away in DR.
- first 21-25mp FF: starting to challenge MF on sharpness/fine detail.
- first high resolution FF: blowing past 6x9 in all respects.
>softer color tonesMeaningless claim. You can produce "soft ones" all you want from a RAW file. Always could.
