You're upset to find noise at ISO 3200 ????
With many cameras (including my previous one), ISO 200 is the best you can do without serious noise.
You can always use neat image on it.

I've used it on my 10D when there was no other choice. Yes there was grain, but I can't complain. It's not that bad, considering.

ISO-3200, Mirror Lock-up, light noise reduction with NoiseWare Community edition, then slight gaussian blur to soften. |

| I use 3200 if I need it for poorly lit handheld night shots or something. With a run through neat image or something like it the noise is reduced to acceptable levels and is fine for a 4x6 print. I prefer to stay between 100-1600ISO but will kick it up to "H" (3200) if required. One positive note about ISO 3200 is that the noise looks more like film grain than sensor noise to me. It could be useful for doing artsy shots where grain can add to the image. |

You probably mean ISO 1600 when speaking about the 10D?

I had to process pictures taken by a hairdresser with a 300D from the set of a movie shot at 1600. Very, very noisy. A local museum wanted these for an exhibition. The man had a good eye and got some otherwise great shots, but I ended up draining almost all the color from these to get them 11x14 show quality. In the case of a few of the prints it was a close shave, while still others just had far too much grain to salvage.
The storyline of the movie is set in the 1930s, so reducing these down to sepia looking prints had no drawbacks in this case. (never use the crappy sepia filters)
