What I mean is that the camera with the lowest noise at high isos, and
which also is comfortable to use and meets my other criteria, is the
best one for me.

Within the realms of what I consider reasonable price, that would be the
Can*n 20D, which is actually quite usable at 3200. Take a look at smaple
#18 <http://www.dpreview.com/gallery/?gallery=canoneos20d_samples/>. the
bigger sensor Can*ns are also very good. I don't know about the best
Nik*ns, but I don't think they are quite as good in this particular area.
