I would have loved to have clean ISO3200/6400 for the Occupy images. Shooting at 1600 F1.4 can be effective, but it would also good to have choices of 6400 at F2.8. Sometimes you don't get to choose. If at 5AM in the morning is where the images are, then you take photographs at 5AM. Different strokes for different folks. This is why Nikon D3 comes in high ISO / fast FPS and high image quality / low ISO.
