Wait! You're worried about noise and you're shooting Fuji 800 pushed a
stop? There's something here that doesn't quite compute.:-)

Subject: Re: [OM] Noise and dynamic range of the E-1
All the more reason to have fast primes in front of a digital back I
say! Short shutter speeds = less noise. Give me a full-frame sensor
but make mine with very large pixels so I can shoot in low light, in a
Canon body for $600. I'll wait, thank you. Until then, it's Fuji 800
pushed one stop and a MiJ on a tripod-mounted OM.
