High ISO issues

[marcusy]

bro care to share?

 

[navlem]

share wat?

 

[marcusy]

btw all is being pp in lightroom .

 

[marcusy]

like noise tat can be avoided

 

[stvc11]

over all is all the pictuer acceptable?

Suggest you do a 8R/S8R printing, that might give you best answer.

Btw very very acceptable for me.

@marcusy

The second pic do not have to be shot at ISO800 if you do not want the noise. You can widen the aperture as the DOF of F6.3 is not needed for such wide angles.

Just read my previous message now quoted here. Lower your ISO, and if you need, compensate by widening your aperture.

 

[marcusy]

for small print like 4R to 5R should be ok . S8R think sure die...... lol

i did print this S8r for my friend.

 

[stvc11]

It's very big different as compare the 2 picture, print it and feel it. It's the best way for myself to find out the answer when i doubt the same problem as you.

 

[marcusy]

think is because of smaller print bah ...tat y is much clearer.

 

[hoppie]

question from a Noob, is this ISO "problem" improve in the A230 and A330? Reason i asked? I just got a A330, wanted a A500 but due to budget problem and being a noob, just get a A330 first.

 

[navlem]

the improvement is more obvious in a500 and a550.

 

[marcusy]

hope the replacement for A700 will be out soon hee hee

 

[navlem]

im waiting for it

 

[marcusy]

yeah . when to take a look at A850 .. seem ok but FF
if present to be use on A850 is like put a waste on the a850 as in body is FF but lense is not like never make full use of the body

I have use A200 with Minolta 5600 before. Using above photos as sample, I won't even bother to shoot at ISO800 if using flash unless I am doing telephoto (subject 5M or further away) or flash is off. Technically, if your subjects are just 3m away from you, ISO400 with bounce flash on is more than sufficient. There is no reason to bump up the ISO to 800 or higher unless you want to see all the noisy crowd behind.

If you have set your flash on auto, regardless of the ISO your subject will be more or less similarly well lit. The only difference is that your background will be darker for low iso and brighter for high iso. And of course at high iso, noise will come in.

here is 2 shots from a A200 jpeg output that is well exposed. one was shot at ISO 100, and the other at ISO3200, and running thru NeatImage.

care to guess?

 

[navlem]

first pic is the iso3200?

quite easy to tell from the details lost.

 

[XkaOnslaught]

correct. but if you look at both, are you going to care much about that? because frankly, you look at it anyhow, it still looks more or less the same. a slight color loss is all that is to chroma noise removal.

 

[navlem]

Yeah, its perfectly usable. Precisely why i always shoot at high ISOs without any reservation.

 

[XkaOnslaught]

actually ah, i find the colors on the ISO3200 output to be more 'correct' ~_~

the hair is actually a shade of purple than blue >_>
