p.3 #1 · High ISO: 1D vs. 40D

The 40D images spank the c*ap out of the 1D images.

You have stated that at the per-pixel level the cameras seem equal to you (which is not true but about which I won't quibble). Well, the 40D has a truckload more of those pixels. The image captured by the 40D is far superior. Image-quality speaking, the two cameras are in a different class, with the 40D far ahead. (AF and build-wise, of course, it is the reverse.)

Not so. Please look at my first post. I said that "Although the 6 years of chip progress is felt, it is not as dramatic as I expected".

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Noise-wise, yes 40d will have a edge in high iso, but IQ as a whole, hehe, you have to look at 1d files and see youself.
