I have toyed with fixing it myself and also on using "lens dependent" and both work as might be hoped. The real bonus is the slight but I think definite reduction in noise with the firmware update. The last image I posted: http://tinyurl.com/435bwq was taken at 1250 ISO, and a number of others at 640 out on the street on a sunny day. I can see "grain" in the 1250 image, but most of the 640 ones look fine, ESPECIALLY if you are planning to do b/w. If you were using a camera with less noisy images, then it would be very handy thing for colour as well. Here is a colour version of the same session at 1250 iso. To my eye its OK in colour and works well in b/w http://tinyurl.com/3t28cr Cheers Alastair
