I also shoot the D70 when on dry ground - but a point and shoot digital on the water. Simply, (as you probably do) I use the lowest ISO setting I can possibly use. You are correct that the P&S do not handle higher sensitivities worth a dang. On the D70, you can crank it up well over 800 if necessary and still have passable image quality. Also, be aware that the ISO values are very different. The bottom end on the Nikon CP8700 is "50" but the bottom end on the D70 is "200". I can say from owning one that the 8700 can't go much over "100" without starting to really look bad in my opinion. So 200 on the D70 is not the same as 200 on a P&S. Not sure that helps you much. Seems to me that Photoshop has a image balancing filter or feature - load in an image and it will adjust subsequent images to "match". Haven't used it but might be useful for your task at hand. K Who just today dropped his D70 for the first time...on carpet...but still the sickening 'crack' when it hit still makes my blood run cold....everything appears to be functioning but oh my. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
