Nikon’s D810A is an astrophotography-oriented version of the D810. It’s the first full-frame camera dedicated to astrophotography, and is�better able to capture the hydrogen alpha spectral line. It also expands long exposure options, and has garnered speculation as to�improvements in�low light capabilities. We’ve already published some impressions and real-world images, but now take a look at its performance in our studio.
Pay particular attention to Raw noise performance at high ISOs compared to its rivals – the results may surprise you. Our initial impressions suggest it’s the new class leader with respect to high ISO performance in a 36MP+ full-frame body, which is quite a feat. And don’t forget to look at color rendition, with the modified IR-cut filter. Do you note differences in JPEG or Raw color?

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
