What do you considering the upper limit for ISO?
"RichA" wrote in message
... Lets say you aren't pretending, like so many do that you can take really good images at high ISO. Where do you draw the line? Canon and Nikon are now boasting 100,000+ ISOs for their latest offerings, the Canon isn't even FF! But lets say you shoot with a D700 and you have the luxury of going with either 3200 or 6400 ISO. Can you produce a shot worthy of keeping at 6400 ISO? Or are we just kidding ourselves that the output at that ISO, or from any camera is acceptable? I shoot a D300. IMO, beyond 800 ISO I have trouble accepting the images as really good. I'm talking about non-noise reduced raw images. Sometimes, it's possible to use NR and not make the picture look like crap, but the leeway is narrow. As cameras produce increasingly useable images at higher and higher ISOs, using ISO as a standard for what is and isn't acceptable is meaningless, except perhaps on a camera by camera basis. -- www.mattclara.com |
