It's hard to see noise here with such a rought background but it doesn't look like you have that much if any. Can you see any in the original???

| I think the key to this test is taking an image with a lot of dynamic range. Deep shadows and bright highlights. That way we can see how the cameras handle the different types of light. |

Well then we would be taking a regular picture. I'm trying to bring out the sensor dust and image grain that we all hate so much. It' more of a learning for me then anything. So that is why all the restraints on light

I'll do a 350D test later today and post it up.

My test was back in December, and may not satisfy your requirements. I shot a static scene, lit by ambient outdoor daylight (cloudy), in AV mode, and changed only the ISO between shots. The camera automatically metered, therefore, to keep the luminance level constant. I did not write down the shutter speeds or the aperture I used (D'oh!), nor did I write down the lens, though I think I used the Tamron 28-75.
Anyway, with those provisos, here is my test:

Edit to add: to see the shots at 100%, select the "original" size from underneath the images. Open in separate tabs to really see the progression.

Wow you have almost no noise. There is some but MUCH better than mine.

Okay, I realize this is completely cheating, but here are two from the same photoshoot (a year ago), one at 200 and the other at 1600. Before scrolling down, see if you can tell which is which:
 
This is a cheat because both are edited, noise-ninja'd and all. But it shows that the end-result can look clean even when you start with a noisy original, it just takes more work. |

| Magnus, that's an outstanding result for 1600 on the 10D!! |

Impressive, I got them wrong. That 1600 is magic. And about Noise Ninja... Tell me more. I have seen and heard of people using it but until now I figured I wouldn't bother with it. Where did you get it and can I get it free???

BTW, here's a 100% crop of the original of the 1600 one:
I don't think you can get a free (legal) copy of Noise Ninja, but the basic versions are only $35-45 at Picturecode. I think there's a free version of Neat Image

Oh yeah there is the noise. Once you zoom in you can really see it but I need something like noise ninja for challenges. I'm pushing more noise than a high school band.

Well here is some that I did with my 350 350 ISO test
thou the images seemed abit soft on the page in photo shop they were not as soft. But the ISO range is 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 at f/8 and a 100 watt light source.
