Furthermore, despite targeting for astrophotography, it looks like it's (almost) useable for daylight use too.
I was experimenting last night with it - the noise at 12800iso is about the same as the d800 at 3200. NB this is with normal in camera NR on, and based on a visual inspection of the zoomed in screen image. No quantitative measure yet. Also, just mucking about with a lens with a normal uv/ir filter showed perfectly normal colours.
Hopefully the weather will clear in a week or two and I can try it out under a dark sky in the cold of winter.
cheers,
Andrew.
