Originally posted by milesy did you do much noise reduction on these shots?? the reason i ask is when i am shootin 1600 i seem to see a fair bit more noise than this??
I processed raw files through lightroom. Most of the photos was set to 0% noise reduction on luminanse and 25% on color, which is my standard setting, and I think quite modest. The exception is the picture with the cat, which was noisier and took something like 40%/40%.
To my experience, the darker the photo is, the more noise I see. It appears to me that a fast lens helps avoiding noise. Don't know if this is technically correct, but it is what I experiense.
Don't really understand why people complain that much about the noise in the K-7.

Thanks!
The only thing that might make me part from this lens is if someone offer me to swap it for one of the Pentax 200mm macro lenses. But I would sure end up missing it.
