I realize that. But I found ISO 3200 unacceptable on the *istD. Yet 1600 on the K10D appears to yield better results than the same sensitivity on the *istD. Thus, at this point, I believe I can attain higher shutter speeds in low light with the K10D than I could with the *istD. Where I couldn't get enough shutter speed with either camera, I would combine some slow shutter flash with an ambient exposure. I might get some motion blur, but I'd get a sharp central image as well. That's generally how it's done. Paul On Nov 26, 2006, at 7:00 PM, William Robb wrote:
