My MM does everything I need ... Canons in low light and the noise looks more like film grain than digital noise. I even get great results at 10,000 ISO....
I guess I was expecting it to be little more noise free then it at the high ISO, case of inflated expectations...
airfrogusmc, as I am clicking and reviewing, one thing that stands out to me is that in LR, when the picture look like having a good exposure value, the histogram is bunched up on the left. If I try to increase the exposure, shadows etc, to make the histogram a bell shaped curve and spread out left to right over the DR range, the image is too bright with loss of details. Is this something with LR, with MM files or simply with ME. Quite likely the last one, and if so what do I use to know the exposure is optimized?
