ISO 6400 is useable with some NR software. The others are pretty noisy but for B&W they will work fine. I reckon.

The images were shot raw, converted to TIF and imported into lightroom. I exported them to JPG without any editing.

I can't wait--mine ships out this week!

Michael, Thanks for posting these test shots!
