[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have the Oly E-510. I have been limiting the ISO to 400, but, yesterday decided to look at the higher settings. I had not had much luck with 1600 indoors, so gave up on it. It would probably have helped some of my bird shots in deep shade. After looking at Neat Image, I may give the inside shots another try.
