So, I took some test shots to see for myself, what do you all think about the noise on these. No noise reduction, just converted from Raw and to the web.  and a 100% crop for the pixel peepers among us   "You are going to fall off a cliff trying to get a better shot someday"- My hopeful and loving wife

Certainly leaps and bounds better than the original 1ds Well, the WB is dead on actually, this is what it looks like. Tungsten or 3200, I played around with other WB's and they looked awful. The orange cast this one has is from the wood behind it "You are going to fall off a cliff trying to get a better shot someday"- My hopeful and loving wife
