I hated the K7 at anything above base ISO. I still think it had the nicest
skin tone rendering I’ve seen out of a digital camera, providing it was
kept at ISO 100.
My K5 is OK up to 3200, noisy beyond. The K7 & K110D were already noisy
at 800.

A Martial Eagle on the ground with its prey under Autumn shade Mopane

30m. A lucky sighting.

Thanks , Mark!
I see you "cheated" as Rick would say about my habit of looking at a
whole gallery after getting pointed to one shot :-)
Ashley came home with me on July 16th , 2006 -- she was about a year ,
based on papers that had her as 10 months in mid May. So I decided

kittens in October 2005. Tempus Fugit, as they say.

I think the Program A was essentially the same as the Super Program, which
was my first SLR after my 1966 Spotmatic. It was a very reliable camera

Taking a break from laying tile in the kitchen I decided to take a moment to
peruse PetaPixel.
There's an article with an accompanying video from a guy who's building a DIY
"Auto" Film Processor (more semi-auto at this point). But he's got it programmed
for B&W, C41 and E6 films.

TLDR: In most situations I find that I can push up to 10,000 and get
usable images, particularly when shooting social or dance events
indoors. I'm much better off doing 10,000 without a flash than
annoying, or distracting, folks with a flash at lower ISOs.
Too noisy is very subjective and d
I used to shoot the K20D up to 1600 ISO, anything above that was usually
unusable for large prints.
The K-5II seems to be good up to 25600 if you like somewhat chunky*
grain at times, color usually seems good with A, F and FA lenses, would
probably be just as good with DA lenses but I don't ow
I’m right where you are. With both the K-2 and K-3, 25600 seems to be the
practical limit. The K-1 shows a slight advantage, probably due to sensor size.
When shooting birds or sports I try to keep it at 6400 or less, but go with
what nature gives me. Shooting cars for publication I go for 400 o

Surprise, surprise but I got very usable captures up to 25600, but not so
much @ 51200
Wonderful series. I love photographing in places like that. Someday I will have
to get there. Thanks also for the story, which I hadn't known.

Thanks, Rick. What you say is very sensible and practical.
I have managed to grab a few nice images of stained glass: one from Notre
Dame is in the 2017 PDML annual.
