ASAAR offered these thoughts for the group's consideration of
the matter at hand:
It just confounded me
that multiple camera stores assured me that both Nikon and
Canon DSLRs were capable of low-noise images at high ISO and
Boom! smacked right in the forehead with Pop Photography.
The mag did say, though, that the 20D was far superior to
the Rebel, maybe it should be at its much higher price!
<grin>
It was early 2005, as far as I can tell. I haven't tested
any of the Canon DSLRs myself so I can't usefully comment
further.
That's Pop Photo for you. When pro's want the real poop,
that's
their Mecca. On the other hand, I put more faith in the many
shared experiences here that considered the Rebel XT to be one
of the best for low noise. Here's some of what DPReview had
to say about image quality, ISO, noise, etc. :
I almost hesitate to reply here. I am not a regular reader of
Popular Photography, I just happned to see the one issue I
mentioned. All I can say is that the "prevailing view" of the
Rebel as a low-noise camera is not echoed in my personal
experience.
As you can see there's almost no visible difference in noise
levels between the EOS 350D and EOS 20D, our measured results
(see graph below) show that the 350D's noise levels are very
slightly higher between ISO 800 and 1600. Image sharpness is
also virtually identical with a slight softening at ISO 800
and 1600 but nothing like the levels we have seen from other
cameras.
Conclusion
º Excellent resolution, a clear match for the EOS 20D
º Good color, default +1 parameter set means punchy images
out of the camera º Noise free 'silky smooth' images at ISO
100, 200 and 400 º Very good in-camera image processing,
JPEG's almost as good as processed RAW's º Very low noise
levels even at ISO 1600, virtually unnoticeable below this
º Excellent seven point AF system, fast, good in low light
and reliable . . .
º Almost no noise in long exposures, optional noise reduction
if required
