Testing, Testing, Testing

Continuing the work at the Lodge, things are progressing reasonably well.  Then a downpour stopped outside "play".

The K-3 has a considerably higher ISO rating than I am used to.  51,2000 as opposed to 12,800.  I decided I needed to know just how noisy the shots would be before I took any seriously anywhere near the ISO.

This is a shot of raindrops on the veranda windows at the Lodge.  The stripes in the drops are the light and dark of the railings round the veranda.  As I expected it is noisy but I have to say nowhere near as bad as I expected.  I felt the top ISO would be totally unusable only being put there for "bragging rights".
