totally agree there Eric . a good p/p regime does help as does a good de-noise plug in for photoshop if you use it . here's one from the panasonic g80 at 3200iso taken a couple of weeks ago in grey overcast , normally I would not have bothered in this sort of light but its a rarity (Slavonian grebe) so it had to be done . my main problem is my lens whilst being a Leica is a f6.3 minimum and though I do love the fact I can shoot at a equivalent 800mm on the 2x crop factor and with 5 way i.s the light is the limiting factor .
I will be hoping to find a f4 or better when the d300s arrives . anyway heres this I will look for higher iso examples later

Jeff that's a superb shot of the Slav. I do wonder why you need to change gear when you can get results like that? Did you have to use any noise reduction on that image? How much of a crop is it?
I would LOVE to achieve such sharp noise free results but either the locations, lighting or both seem to be conspiring to mean I need to crop noisy images....making them worse. I would like to think I could get images out of the camera that don't need post processing. I spent years at a computer and would like to now...just take photos. But at the moment I am failing.
