Pentax K-7 High-ISO Portraits – Endless debates on the noise of the K-7 vs K20D will probably never end, but these photos are fantastic.
Peter Jonkman says:
Coming from a humble *ist DS, K10D and K20D I do not use ISO 1600 and 3200 that often, but I'm well aware of the fact that many here think that the noise of the K-7 is bad. I beg to differ. The noise may not be less than in the K20D, but it's definitely less obtrusive and easier to clean up in the post-processing stage.
Peter also shows an example of an ISO 3200 image after having run Noiseware noise reduction on it.
Lenses used for the portraiture were the DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL Weather Resistant kit lens and the Pentax SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4.
