I just had a chance to play with the ISO at 400, using a Yashica 50 mm 1.9f,
then figured out how to get to the ISO boost and tried all the combinations
up to 1600, I think it is. Still without flash in my bedroom at night with
a few florescent fixtures, shooting a puzzle hanging on the opposite wall, I
still had a lot of yellow in the pics, all f them, but at auto verses ISO
1600 it was something like 1/1 verses 1/50.
Since the yellow shows I still needed even more light, I don't suppose the
high ISO will be visible to ruing the pics.
We'll know on Sunday night when I get back!
BTW, Moose got to shoot the fish from the front of the tank, I'll be
shooting their back sides :-) as I'm getting a behind the scenes tour, as
the person taking us use to be a docent there and is my present docent
coordinator at Big basin, volunteer work has some material/visible rewards
at times too.

Let's wait for Moose to weigh in here with his beautiful shot of
jellyfish at Monterey Bay Aquarium. However, he did it with his Canyon
at ISO 3200 with no flash thus avoiding the reflection problem.
Actually, I don't think you'd be allowed to use flash anyhow nor do I
think it would be very effective if you could.
You may get a chance to test the high ISO performance of the E-500.
