If it is a question of digital noise, you might try some (very) judicious application of Noise Ninja. If it is an excellent image, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a small print, say 5x7", in a larger matt, say 11x14 or even 16x20. Just don't let any "technical" photographer friends critique...their evaluation will be limited by the length of their nose and the strength of their loupe--they will never see the image!! Ken BTW I still think "death rides the B train" is an excellent image. FWIW you might try a Canon 40D and a 28mm 1.8 lens. A lot of freedom there, up to 3200 ISO, and not much bulk. > -----Original Message----- > From: lug-bounces+kcarney1=cox.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug- > bounces+kcarney1=cox.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Victor Rubin > Sent: Sunday, November 25, 2007 4:12 PM > To: lug > Subject: [Leica] Some advice please > > Hi All: > Well, I've finally started shooting RAW and I love it.
