Photons to Photos projected the dynamic range of the Nikon D850 and while impressive they expect the Sony a7R2 to match and exceed it, while the Sony a9 will exceed it past 800 ISO. It seems Nikon’s BSI technology isn’t as good as Sony’s, but at least it is very much on par with the Canon’s 5DSR. Hopefully, Photons to Photos will revise their numbers upwards as they gain access to more data, because I doubt we have hit the limits of full frame sensor technology. You can keep track of the revisions here. I am pretty sure Sony’s next generation high-resolution full frame chip will show significant improvement considering how old the Sony a7R2 is now. The Sony a7R3 might even rival a camera like the GFX, but we will have to wait and see.
