    I was at a show in Disney and wanted to see how good my Canon 50D was at high ISO. I think you might agree, the new sensors are awesome. This was shot at ISO 3200, f/4.0. 1/250 sec, EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, 96mm, Evaluative Metering, Auto Exposure, Auto WB, No Flash. Comments Welcome......

    Very impressive! And you didn't run any NR on this? Suddenly I'm wanting a 50D. :o

    Mr. Waas,
    This is superb. The lady is placed just right in frame, with effortless motion, suspended in mid-air...sharp details...good color rendition, and showcased by the rays of the stage lights...well done...proud of you...:cool:

    Holy cow, at first I thought this was a digital composite (looking at the thumbnail image). Glad I opened it. I like everything, including the colors, light rays and the pose. Yes, though not a nature image, it still rocks. :)

    Really astounding Richard. I know you couldn't use flash, but I am amazed, this looks like flash to me. Just a bit of noise showing through but for 3200 really good.

    Al, I've been using Imagenomic. I love it and the more you use it, it learns from your images. I used to use Define 2.0, but I like this much better.

    Awesome capture Richard. You timed it perfect and it's also very sharp considering the lighting.
    Congrats
