It can't be done. The photobucket does not accept raw format btw, so it ends here.
I view the raw 3200 and they are at the equivalent slightly less than A4 paper on my monitor. The noise is there but only for pixel peepers. And it maintained in that form upto 30% magnification. By the time it reach 50% the grain start noticable, but still very good. At 75% magnification the grain start condensing to 100%.
With 1600 it is different, there is no visible noise increase at 50%. It become noticable at 100%. Yet it is quite acceptable when it passed the 300% magnification. The way I see it here the 300% plus percent magnification of 1600 ISO seems better than 100% magnification of 3200.
Anyway, this CCD and CMOS jargons to me is just way to distract what our eyes see things. The pictures are there to see regardless where they came from and how the camera processed them. We are getting too technical here for no good reason really.
Shutter Speed and Image Quality are two things that concern photographers all the time. Over the years the camera manufacturers succeed in constantly increasing the SS. But that achievement came with the price tag. So when the D40 managed to double the SS to achieve ISO 3200 with the minimal loss of quality and low price tag - than that is quite achievement. The JPEG fine in D40 is so good that firing at ISO 800 seem no different with ISO 200. ISO 1600 is only look noisy for the people who look at photos to find noise.
Well said...
btw... do you feed your kitty a can of coke after each meal??
