Hey Rob! :) I am fighting with my ftp server to get some up to show you (and my clients web gallery too!), and as soon as I win the fight, I'll link them here. But no, this monitor (on a HP Pavilion dv6500 laptop) is uncallibrated as I had never intended it to be used for photography purposes. I am madly researching to get myself set up with a new lappy asap. However, there was MUCH less noise with the *istD at ISO400, so much less that it was something that I didn't even consider when exposing for my shoot yesterday, and wish (obviously) that I done so now! :(
I'll try and get these shots up as examples for you asap and get back to you with a link or two! :) Tan. -----Original Message----- From: pdml-boun...@pdml.net [mailto:pdml-boun...@pdml.net] On Behalf Of Rob Studdert Sent: Monday, 8 February 2010 12:28 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: over exposing to reduce noise??

My brief required me to shoot the interior in only available light (although I did cheat and use a little bit of flash bounced into some of the shadows some time), and there is A LOT of noise in the dark (shadow) areas of the images. (I will post them later but can't log into my ftp server right now for some reason, and I am sitting here on hold to the hosting company as I type this!). Hi Tan, It will be interestng to see some of the problem images, are you running a calibrated monitor? If it is calibrated do you know the maximum white luminance? Did you see less noise in ISO400 images shot using your *istD?
