Re: Subject: Re: EOS Cost of 1Ds

[Steve Parrott]

I agree that the noise problem is something that hopefully Canon will 
fix on the next 1Ds. I will say though, that the noise looks much worse 
on the computer screen than it does in final print. I use just basic 
noise reduction methods in PS CS and can get acceptable prints even at 
higher ISOs. Still, for a $7000 camera, it should be better in this 
aspect than it is.

the full frame DSLR's so they can probably get away
with the price for a bit longer.  I'm shooting
weddings with one and the files are very noisy in dark
churches when you have to under expose a bit. (I'm
still using my D60 as the second body... but not for
long!)
I agree about the low light statement.  My one
disappointment with my 1Ds (subjectively) is that it
is useless above ISO 250 because of the graininess.
Maybe other owners use some fancy PhotoShop plug-in to
minimize the noise but I just use Corel PhotoPaint 8.
