Do you guys hate Tripods? Are you shooting sports photography by candlelight? Not trust Shake Reduction? What's with all the high ISO stuff?
Outdoors or shooting a subject that does not move, I'm with you. I'll go as high as 400 on the K20d and 200 on the K10d. However, weddings, parties, plays and events are so much better at ISO 800- 1600, even with the marginal built-in NR of Photoshop. It is the difference between catching the moment and not.
