As soon as he sends me the money to buy those tools it's still an issue. >The "better noise perfomance" argument is less true with the Sony >Exmor sensors than it used to be.

Ctein debunked that notion in the Online Photographer a couple of years ago. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
