Well, possibly, sometimes. This was taken at the closest focusing distance at 135mm, 1/1000, f16, ISO 8000 on a K5.

Image straight from the camera apart from resizing for the forum in PSE. No post processing and no cropping.

They certainly are, David. I was very surprised. I have another shot of a different subject at ISO 10000 and the noise levels are almost as good. My new K5 never ceases to amaze me.
