Well, since I started this thread I guess I should go first.
My first impression matches, and reinforces, what I thought when attending the Launch Events in March. I am finding that ISO 6400, and maybe even a touch higher, is something I can make use of, see the High ISO Gallery for my samples from last night, the ISO values are in the title and you can use the little "i" symbol on the lower right of an image page to view full EXIF.
The AF is simply amazing. The last shot in the High ISO Gallery was more to test AF than ISO. That was dark, 9:20PM in my backyard and the camera was still able to AF. It did have a small amount of hunting, but not much at all. For flying birds, in this case Osprey and Terns, if I could find it in the VF the AF just locked in quickly and stayed locked in, even when the bird was less than the size of the visible AF point.
The Osprey pictures in This Thread are examples of this also. The 3rd one is part of a very long set of multiple bursts as I followed the Osprey from a perch about 200 yards away. AF never had an issue.
Next up is to figure out all the custom settings, that could take a while as there are some interesting new ones.
