Whoever that General may be, he/she appears to have a different lens than I do.
Mine has no IS, hence no IS motor, nor
do the on-line specs show IS.
I've taken shots by moonlight and not seen it. But I've not tried to bring up
super deep shadows, which may reveal all
sorts of unsavory things.
I tend rather to use heavy NR on really deep shadows if there is annoying noise
and leave 'em down there. I may mess
with the rest, but the deep, dark parts are what grounds the image and makes it
look like what it is, a shot in the dark.
