ISO 50.000 image thread

This topic is for posting pictures taken in bad light conditions, without flash or any additional light, using only ISO 50.000.

My example was taken in almost full darkness...the only light came from a little door behind me, and it was almost end of the day, it was raining outside.

Incredible ... the power of the Q 

 

I think, in time, if not already ... the Q will become Iconic  :)

as you know, I love night photography but rarely go that high (tripod with 8~10 secs works for me) -- BUT 50,000 would allow me to handhold most images.

I hereby accept the challenge!

 

My pic above was taken handheld, I forgot to mention it...

Waiting for new entries here!

Lucena:

Handheld. No lighting in the room. Perhaps some ambient light from the room behind me.

 

I obviously had much less success than you at iso 50,000!  Impressive, nonetheless.

Hey folks, we talk about ISO 50ooo !

What can we expect? What I see here impresses me. Very good camera, really. It is an extreme and shows what is possible. Think back in Film times - no chance anyway without flash.

Hello Xata...   Two experiments last night.

First is indoor at ISO 50,000 @ 1.7 @ 1/2000. AF, handheld, noisy but unretouched.  And yes, meu caro professor, the Q is magnificent just like the Champagne!

Second is outdoor @ ISO 50,000 @ 1.7 @ 1/15, AF, handheld, noisy yet unretouched.  No moon, no outdoor lights other than neighbor's lights, some light filtering out of our darkened home.

Wanted to upload last night but the images are too large and LR Mobile does not downsize like LR Mac.

Well, Ropo and SonomaBear, the results are great, we have to look at that as something that would be normaly impossible, as Digitom says so well! I have to give it a try with a tripod, maybe next weekend, we are having the first rain in six months and the falls are quite violent, with wind... so I will wait for outside, maybe I will give it a try inside!

It is good to realize that in case of need to keep a memory or whatever in bad conditions of light or no light at all the Q allows it...

I agree: it is quite amazing to get these kind of results in pitch black lighting. Thank you for "showing us the light"!

From the balcony of our condo at the beach. ISO 50,000. It's grainy and banded, but still pretty amazing.

Having just been lucky enough to be able to get a Q I would be very interested in any tips you all might have in getting decent results in low light.

 

I have found a lot of banding noise even at 6400 (and sometimes well below that) when shooting in low light. 50,000 is completely useless in low light for me - worse than ropo54's example above. Running the images through the remove banding option in Nik Define 2 does help, but in many cases it still interferes with the image (to my eyes).

 

Yes, I did check that the firmware was up to date. I have tried with and without OIS – I don't see any difference between them on the images, and at least OIS allows me to use a slower shutter and therefore a lower ISO...

 

So any pointers on how to get better results would be great! Thanks.
