I'm suprised Eric that you find the problems with the A1 in low light as I have found it to be excellent in low light and high iso. I can get cleaner shots with the A1 than I did with the Nikons.

What sort of ISO do you feel comfortable going up to with the A1? I find it’s ok up to say 4000. It may be the way Affinity handles the raws. I have made the shift back to Photoshop, but not yet reworked some of the recent noisey images (10000+) …...will look at that this week.

I would say it operates very well up to 3000 and of course if I only shoot in sunny weather (<1000) it’s perfect.

The issue is made worse when cropping, because the noise is also enlarged with the subject and somehow to my eye it becomes more obvious. Noise reduction tends to soften important detail. 

Again this may be a failing with Affinity. Though it’s fair to say that the Sony A7 worked well with it.
