Talking about noise, I found that in this one or two years on most of the
ads (both hard prints and TV) on women cosmetics, most of them looks nothing
close to "real". You cannot see any skin imperfection and there are no hairs
on the face. They look absolutely no life to me, just like a computer
generated face, they are really terrible! I believe they have went through
some software noise reduction (or skin perfection) softwares.
Although I usually won't do any software noise reduction but I started to
feel the extremely low noise of 10D makes the prints look unreal, time to
investigate on the noise adding filters :-)

Reading what C.H has to say, I'm beginning to give up knowing
if it is possible to make accurate noise comparisons, raw or not. So I
think I will just go on to something else... The E-1 sounds promising
and I believe Olympus can do some good engineering. I certainly
like the basics of the C-5050. I bet there are some Oly engineers
who probably need a break and some rest....
