Lovely camera but high ISO wasn't it's strong point.
Still having a K10D it is for me but as people buy the newer generation of DSLR (no matter what make) we are starting to see better and better ISO performance. I would be thinking in the 3200 range now to show high iso performance of a new camera.

Hi Lance. Out of interest, is there any particular reason you chose Noiseware over Neat Image or Noise Ninja?K7 + DA17-70 f4 @ f5, 70mm 1/1000sec, ISO1600. Noiseware noise reduction.

But probably the wrong breed of duck so I guess Lance's ducks are safe!

Thank you very much, Martin.Nice pics Lance the dog images look great zero noise but i think the duck images look a tad noisier
Yes, the duck images are slightly noisier, due mostly to the darker backgrounds as I am sure you realise, but I am still learning the ropes of the Noiseware program.

They are for me! I never kept anything over ISO800 before. while not wishing to stir up a hornets nest .. can ISO 1600 actually be considered high these days?

True. There has been talk that the K7 higi ISO was noisy, but by shooting RAW I was trying to point out that the results from the K7 at high ISO can be made to look as good/bad as the competition. Especially if you are using added software to reduce any noise.
Here is an ISO3200 shot. K7 + DA17-70 f4 @ f6.3, 70mm 1/20sec.

You are welcome Lance.
Its good to note that if the subject doesn't fill the frame and there is a distance between the subject and background more noise is probable.As said the dogs are cracking pics with good composition and exposure.
I'm sure these images would be easily overblown.Nice work
