Thanks mate... I have to blame the Mark II for that. I still can't believe how good it looks at high ISO settings.

Mark II was a lens was it? Or camera? I'm not too up with camera equipment these days, as I've only really used a few filters for some medium format shots I did earlier this year.

There's some software which works with digital photos, which is designed to reduce grain. I haven't used it yet though, so I can't say how well it works. I should give it a go soon. You probably already know or have tried such software already though

I was talking about my camera, the Canon EOS-1D Mark II. It is known for its capabilities to produce stunning images at high ISO settings. So much so that I have yet to need any third party noise reduction sfotware, like I did with my original EOS-1D (first version). I tried a few versions of noise reduction software, but I was never happy with the results. I always just preferred to have the noise in the image. Depending on the application, it isn't always a horrible thing... But that's just my opinion.

ahh, I see now. I've been looking into cameras in that range now. I think the Nikon D70 is quite similar, if a remember correctly. I'd love to have a camera like that really. Mine is OK for most shots, despite it being a compact camera. I have a Fuji Finepix F810.

I too think noise can be great some some shots. Too little noise on a shot you'd expect to have a lot of noise is a strange looking thing. Not saying your shot was like that at all, especially considering the camera capabilities. Before too long I think I start considering a digital SLR or something like that.

"Still love that icon" I can say the same thing for your sig Very clever indeed

Thanks! Yes, all sports shots are cropped to peak action, as is the norm. Hockey is a very "square crop" sport. Dallas won that game 3-2.

I was standing just to the left of some of the OLN cameras. You should have waved to me.
