R1 shows nice details: #1 is a crop from #2 which is a crop from #3.
All pictures are shot in RAW. So much easier to handle in pp. I'm addicted to RAW now

1ST - CONGRATS ON THE R1! 2nd seeing your grandchildren is always a treat!!!
so now that you got the R1 - what do you think about it compared to the 828?? i have the R1 - havent used it recently, but feel it is essentially the 828 with no pf and more detailed images. the R1 complements my gear but if i did not have a dslr with longer lenses the R1 wouldnt suffice. lastly how do you feel about the AF in low light situations? What flash are you using?
sorry about so many questions but i trust your responses very much!

Troy, yes, I agree it's a better 828, but also a different ballgame. I've become much more critical about the jpeg quality. I think this has to do with the nice colors and softness of the RAW. I'm not selling the 828. It has much more tele and yes the low light is pretty bad with the R1. This cam swallows light and when it can the pictures are really good. I have tested low light situations where the R1 did not give the green light or only after 5 or 6 sec. The 828 AF worked within 1 or 2 sec. I do not use the red AF light, which I think is only usable, when there are no people or animals to shoot. I use the Sony f32x. It does pretty well.
I love to talk about this so ask as many questions as you like
