| Originally posted by Yohan Pamudji Wow, Frank. Your ISO 3200 shot looks a lot better than others I've seen, even in the dark areas. The noise isn't as squirrely as in other sample shots by Unlocker and falconeye. I wonder what caused the difference? Are these 100% crops or resized? Originally posted by frank Those original ones are 100% crops, untouched except ACR conversion. You can check the file size  | |

| Originally posted by falconeye Hmmh, files sizes are almost exactly 50% of originals. The noise looks like that in 50% resizes too (resizing to 50% gains you excatly one ISO stop, so ISO3200 would now look like 1600, exactly what I see). Sorry, I made a mistake when uploading those files. Somehow photobucket resized all the original files to max at 1mb size  Since I've got v1.0 firmware installed, I'll do the same test again tonight and post results tomorrow. | |

That level of improvement was too much to hope for I guess. My eyes saw and the part of me that wanted to believe did. Looking forward to the new samples with v1 firmware. | |

I'm checking on some new photos taken after I upgraded to new v1.0 firmware right now. Will upload them when they are ready | |

Did some high ISO testing again after I upgraded the firmware to v1.0. Same setup: K-7 w/ FA31 mounted on tripod, 2 sec mirror up. Someone said the scene wasn't dark enough in the previous test, so I changed a bit, only left one light on (I left two lights on in the prevous test). Here are a set of photos taken w/ NR set OFF, all from RAW (DNG) file converted by ACR (w/ default setting) to JPG, save in quality of 10 , except the ISO6400 ones which were saved at quality of 8 due to the bigger file size (over 5mb if saved above quality of 8, my photobucket account has a file size limite of 5mb).
