Canon C300 Shoots “By the Light of the Moon” . . . Literally Lit by Moonlight

February 27, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Check out the above short from some Canon C300 action at ISO 10,000 and using the moon as the key light.

Yeah, there’s noise, but its not the nasty stuff we get out of the 5D Mark II at higher ISOs.  Now, if I only had $16k for the C300…

Sony A77: A Few Quick ISO Sample Images

November 2, 2011 By Eric Reagan

Sony A77

I’m just now getting my hands on the Sony A77.  While I’ve got lots planned for my final review, I captured a few images with the A77 last night and wanted to pass along a sampling of the ISO range for it.

Check them out below. [Read more…]

Extreme ISO Settings With the D3s, 1D Mark IV and Lightroom 3

June 25, 2010 By Eric Reagan

I’ve been digging into Lightroom 3 for a couple of days now.  I’m a big fan of the improvements – happy to see my video files, love the tethered shooting capability, as well as the improved speed. Last night, however, I decided to dig up some of my photos from the Canon 1D Mark IV and Nikon D3s ISO comparisons and take a closer look at the improved noise control that we’ve all heard so much about.

While I experienced a taste of what was to come in the Lightroom 3 beta, I was not prepared for the magnitude of improvement that I saw in the images as I wiped my Lightroom 2 adjustments and made new adjustments in Lightroom 3’s noise control panel.

I could go on and on about it, but you really need to see for yourself. [Read more…]

Nikon D3S Sample Images from Times Square

January 21, 2010 By Eric Reagan


ISO 6400 – HDR Composite of 9 Bracketed Images

I’ve just been getting to know the Nikon D3S a bit, but I brought it along with me on a quick trip to NYC to visit my good friends at B&H Photo. I had some time to kill last night and I couldn’t resist a walk down to Times Square with the D3S to see what the high ISO handling looked like in a real world environment.  [Read more…]

Using High ISO and Image Noise to Your Advantage

July 2, 2009 By Chris Gampat

The Poor Homeless Man

Like many of you, I’m for getting the cleanest image possible while shooting. Raising that ISO up to levels where you see lots of banding and image noise isn’t really worth it for selling your shots considering how much post-process noise reduction you have to do. Therefore, anything less is totally unacceptable, right? Well, not all the time. If you look at old film photos you’ll see that this isn’t always true. Additionally, there’s lot more you can do besides making the image smaller to hide the flaws. Here’s how to use Image Noise to your advantage: [Read more…]

Canon 5D Mark II and Nikon D700 High ISO – Quick Comparison

December 18, 2008 By Eric Reagan

I put together a few quick frames from ISO 1600 to ISO 25600 for the Nikon D700 and Canon 5D Mark II tonight.  Nothing scientific, just a few shots snapped off at my desk.

Settings: tripod, aperture priority @ f/8, evaluative metering, auto white balance, ISO 1600-25600 in full stops – lenses used were 50mm f/1.8 on the Nikon & 50mm f/1.4 on the Canon – RAW capture – exported to JPEG via Lightroom with no edits other than the 100% crops

As you’ll see, the 5D Mark II tended to underexpose a bit, which I left alone for the purposes of this quick test. I’ll go more in-depth in a later post on these two cameras.

Click on any image to enlarge to full size (Note that I mildly resized the 100% crops to fit into the post, so you’ll need to click to get the 100% crop, which are between 650-800px wide for both cameras)  Also, bear in mind that the 5D Mark II full image files go up to 32MB+ in file size, so dial-up readers need not apply.
