No problem
I should have said \"For a small reproduction size like this, that is an example of what I consider far too noisy, and why I kept the 5D at ISO 1250, or below, for event photography with flash and ambient light mix.\"
First, it perfectly acceptable for me that you find it too noisy. However, what you\'re looking at is a heavily cropped image. It\'s about 10% of the entire image found on page #8: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1212965/7#11564491
It\'s hard to explain why I show it like this, so I think I should stop doing it. They keep getting misunderstood.
So here it is again:
- The original image has 4368x2912 pixels
- For simulating the pixel definition of how a 2-page spread in a 12\" album would look I shrunk the original image to 2424x1616 pixels.
- showing a 2424x1616 pixel image on FM forum is impossible due to image size limits
- so I took a 800x533 crop from the 2424x1616 image to show here
You can have a look at the 2424x1616 pixels image here:
Find the largest computer monitor you can find in your home, the image is meant to be 24 inches wide, so you\'ll need a 27\" or 30\" monitor to view it. Then take appropriate distance to the image, let\'s say about 25 inches or so, just as if you\'d be viewing an album that\'s lying on your lap.
Evaluate again if the noise is visible and if so if it bothers you. If it does, fair enough.
