This is going to be a difficult question to answer without showing comparison images, but can anyone give me some sort of idea how noisy a K-30 is, compared to the much older K-100D?

One of the things that bugs me the most about the older cameras like the K-100D, is the very noticeable noise at higher ISO's. With every step above ISO 200, I can notice additional noise in the image. I think ISO 3200 is horrible.

I've read comments from folks who had much newer DSLR's of various brands, and some of those folks seem content with ISO 3200 on THEIR camera, and I think I've even read a few mentions of folks being satisfied with ISO 6400 for certain applications.

So, how good is the K-30 with regards to high ISO noise, and try to compare it to an older model like the K-100D if you can. I'm hoping the K-30 will let me shoot a few stops higher ISO without sacrificing quality. Would that likely be correct?


Thanks,
Glen
