really? a 1000? Can I ask Why so high? I don't think I've ever used that high of a Iso during a portrait shoot. Do you not have any lights,flashes,strobes? I think the pics are great, but the noise just destroys it. When I get that much noise I scrap the pic. My house is a very dark dingy place where it's very hard to take a pic of anything without a flash. But even without a flash the highest Iso I use is 400 (IMO) anything higher than that usually just kills all detail in the pic. the pics don't look soft because they are not sharp or out of focus, they are soft from the high iso. It's rare I will shoot anything higher than 100 Iso. Have you read any of Brain Petersons books? (understanding exposure,understanding shutter speed,beyond portriats,ect. ) He gives you excercises in those books as you read. Low lighting conditions and all, he never takes the camera off 100 iso.My ISO was at 1000. It was a very overcast day and we were inside or on a shaded patio.
