Full ISO 50 image taken with the Canon EOS 5D Mark III, see the cropped (100%) versions from each camera below. The cropped areas are from the darker side of the scene as this is where the cameras struggle the most and more noise is visible.
The images are made from raw files with the noise reduction turned off at the processing stage. The crops are all 900 pixels wide, but because the D800 records larger images, the subjects are bigger in the versions.
