I personaly use noise ninja but I might have a look at noiseware pro if it is indeed a 'learning' app. I have profiled the fz30 for noise ninja and downloaded profile for neatimage as well, haven't really compared the two side by side yet.
Jamey, I haven't really suffered much loss of detail due to use of NR software, I only tend to use it on serious shadow areas and skies, as that is where it is mopst visible, I tend to mask and fine details areas such as hair/grass/fabrics etc. If the program is profiled properly and you don't overuse the software then it will be fine! |

P.s. if you need a hand with the test, then drop me a line and I'll see what I can do. I do have some time on my hands these days with not a great deal to acheve in the evenings. Plus kell is away all weekend so I wont have to fulfill any obligations there!

Popped in to a local Photo shop today & handled both the F10 & Minolta X1 for comparison. The F10 is small & a decent weight to it & the screen on the back is huge for camera....basically takes up the whole back. Overall seemed a nice bit of kit.
The X1 was slightly taller, but slimmer in depth, which would make it easier to carry around in a pocket. Still think I will go for F10/F11 though.....just want to see if I can get an F11 for nearer £200. Just fired note off to onestop-digital to see what they can do. |

Well I've ordered the F10 from Currys, using discount code & Egg card, so price = £180 delivered. Couldn't justify the extra £70 for the F11 just for manual controls, whereby the pgm modes on F10 can produce 90% the same function.
Really came down to the picture quality, lack of noise plus that excellent ISO1600 funtion which I intend to test on lads night out next Sat in Bristol...if the camera arrives in time
