At least equal to the Sony and eats the Nikon D850 for breakfast.

Not that we get tired of hearing such news.

I jumped through it.

The D850 images look a little brighter than the K-1 and A7riii. Maybe the D850 would benefit from being set 1/2 stop darker than the other 2 cameras. That would help with the blown highlights, too.

Yeah, the Nikon was being over exposed.

He should have used a light meter and actually measured the light accurately to make sure he had the correct exposure settings, for a proper comparison. It could very well be that the Sony and Pentax was actually underexposing the shot for the settings used.

What made me think of this is the following review:

Turns out the Sony sensor ISO's are not really rated correctly as you step up in the ISOs.
