8000 ISO is much higher than I like but mother nature does not always accommodate my preferences.

That is a Beautiful Photo, especially since it was shot with a very High ISO. Did you say ISO 8000 WOW😊

The camera is A7R3 with 100-400 lens processed in Capture One Pro and cleaned with Topaz DeNoise AI.

You and that Sony did a great job! What type of noise reduction/sharpening did you use in PP?

Oops, I see the answer already posted.

The normal ISO ceiling on your camera is 51200, expandable to 204800, so getting usable images at 8000 ISO shouldn't be an issue. I often wonder why folks buy these high tech digital cameras, and it doesn't matter if they are made by Sony or Fuji or Nikon or Canon, just to name a few, and they rarely set the ISO higher than 1600. The technology that goes into the image sensors and processor isn't just for bragging rights, it's so these cameras can record far, far cleaner images than could be done 10 years ago. That coupled with the post processing software available today all but ensures good quality low noise images at much higher ISO'S than years ago. Don't be afraid to grasp the technology and enjoy the results.
By the way, nice photo of a beautiful bird.

Thanks for you comments but I'd like to present an alternative opinion, with supporting evidence.

The manufacturer's high ISO listings are mostly marketing hype. DXOMark shows more realistic values and very few exceed acceptable noise levels beyond ISO3200...easily verified.

DPReview provides IQ comparisons by selectable ISOs that too are more realistic. Listed below are samples of two similar resolution cameras.

If you have evidence to the contrary please share it with us. I am always open to reason.

I attribute the lack of noise in my image to processing software and not the camera but as we well know not all cameras are created equal..
