well, doubling the number of frames ought to reduce the noise by a factor of
2, assuming that thermal noise is all that you are seeing. i think that at
ISO 200, on a 6MP sensor, there isn't anything to be gained that couldn't be
more easily gained by using a better DSP and better circuit design. the
Nikon D2X fits 12MP into a sensor the same size as the D100, which is the
same sensor used in the *istD, and reputedly gets better noise
characteristics.

Subject: Re: What Ever Happened to Chrome? was: Being There
Has anyone ever tried taking several shots of a stationary subject, with
your camera on a tripod, and then averaging the frames together in
software? I wonder if that could possibly make ISO 200 look even more
noise-free than it currently is?
