I'd say the same thing Jeff, If I didn't see it for myself. Took the RAW over to my local camera shop/hangout... Same reaction. But then, I guess my III is special, I've had no problems with focus either! :P The image was shot one stop over and pulled in lightRoom.
The default NR settings in Lightroom (25) will remove Chrominance Noise pretty effectively, even on an ISO 6400 Mark III file. The Mark III's 6400 is good, but it's not that good.

Cham, the 6th and 7th last ones are great! I was just waterskiing back at the cottage and I wish I could ski like that. 1 ski, yup, 1 arm at the end of the rop with my body at a 80 degree angle, nope!
This first one I used "Live view" while I had the camera sitting on edge of a small dock, shortly before sunrise. Full frame, not much in the way of PP

Stephen: that skateboarding shots is the perfect example of tight skate photography, if you have any more like that, I'd be happy to see them.
I do have quite a few more of the skateboarding shots. They were shot with either my 300f2.8IS or 400DO lens:
It was fun but a bit of challenging for me as it was my first time shooting skateboarding. Good practice for Al Servo AF with the new camera. I think they were ~ 35 ft away from me. Mostly tricky backlighting and luckily the relative bright concrete ground acted as a light reflector to give a bit more details back to the shadow area.
