Very cool picture. I like the colder tint and of course the composition with the lines of fishes.

Good to hear you can at least recover what you had shot up to the point of failure. Do you mind sharing the make of the card?

I have used a very old version of N oise Ninja successfully, so I reckon that it must be even better now. I've heard good things of the current versions. But for my use, even LR can do wonders. This photograph was taken at ISO 1600 on the ancient D70s in RAW, of course, and treated with LR3.

Congrats on getting a decent camera. Interestingly, you do not need good weather to shoot with it, so take off the UV thing and return it and either use the camera inside or go out now :)

#4 is very nice. I like the composition and contrast! #2 also pulls me in, it becomes almost abstract. It looks like mercury.

#2 has a very intense feel to it, like the water is trying to pull me in. The colours are nice, especially in #2, again. How long did you expose those? Maybe playing with other times could give you even better results?

Very cool photographs, most of them look very nicely done and I do not notice any noise at this size. The only technical detail that I can notice is a bit of blurring on the subjects (due to panning, I guess). Overall, I think #7 takes the cake. A very intense shot!

Just send it as is. The software is clearly not very intelligent. Canvas prints do not have such high DPI and even normal photo prints can be done at 150 dpi without normal people seeing any difference.

If you like Steinhart also take a look at Orient. They have some very nice divers as well.

The 5200 has the best sensor of the three, what is confusing about that? It is newer than the 7000 and .Canon used their old sensor in the 7D. DXO do not compare cameras, they compare their sensors (and the image pipeline).

Shoot raw and use some current, decent processing engine. They get better at fixing noise-problems and other stuff every year.

Why not? It is certainly better to know if I might develop some condition later on. Maybe I can actively do something to stop it breaking out?

Certainly. I meant that overprocessed images usually have a very clean and artificial look to them, which some people like. I do understand that. Your pictures do not have that, even though there is a lot of processing visible, which you said was intended. They have many details that just do...

The high ISO is not only invisible at the size shown, it was also not needed. A tripod can be nice to have (if you really need it), but it can also be a hindrance.

Very nice technique with the photo. But considering the subject, as an outsider, I think it does not look very cute. I would rather say weird or borderline evil. Sorry if that was too candid, I'm just going off my impression from this one photograph.
