Advertisement Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Hi dritz, Take a look here On the quality of 1250 ASA. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
lct Posted July 17, 2011 Share #22 Posted July 17, 2011 I still get a lot of shadow noise at 1250 iso but it looks less dirty and hides less details than before the firmware update (or alleged placebo effect). M8.2, Elmar-M 50/2.8, f/16, 1250 iso, IR-cut filter, C1 v4 default, greens adjusted in CS3: http://tinyurl.com/637j4ao (13 MB file). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Henry Posted July 17, 2011 Share #23 Posted July 17, 2011 Hi Albert, Nice and lovely portrait of your wife taken at 1250 Iso and without too much grain !

Alberti Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share #24 Posted July 17, 2011 So we both see great improvements in high iso grain, and details. There are other improvements too. I used to have what I might call a quick-release shake: when waking the camera too fast (not wait 2 seconds) the camera assumed a low-lighting conditions. (factor 5 or so). I have never seen anyone that reported about that 'malfunction' though. That seems to be gone in the new firmware too. albert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberti Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share #25 Posted July 17, 2011 I still get a lot of shadow noise at 1250 iso but it looks less dirty and hides less details than before the firmware update (or alleged placebo effect). M8.2, Elmar-M 50/2.8, f/16, 1250 iso, IR-cut filter, C1 v4 default, greens adjusted in CS3: http://tinyurl.com/637j4ao (13 MB file). Pleasing to look at. Very impressive! We trade a bit of details to get real-life rendering. Take that word 'impressive' as reminding of Impressionism' and 'Pointilism'. We don't need details, we need a rendering that looks good, by having a bit of masking. Indeed,the shadows have a life of their own at this speed and I like it. My experience : it does need correct exposure, maybe + 1/3 to 1/2 EV (I have a habit to underexpose my 160 A pictures.) albert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
