Fuji Finepix F50 Indoor Crops
Indoor Crops
Images below are all unmodified 100% crops from the Fuji Finepix F50. ISO was set on the camera but exposure and white-balance was on automatic. The ISO 100 to 1600 are full-resolution 12 megapixels images. For the ISO 3200 shot, the resolution is limited to 6 megapixels by the camera. For the ISO 6400 shot, the resolution is limited to 3 megapixels by the camera.
The crops below show a steady increase in image noise along as the ISO sensitivity is increased. The increase is relatively slow until ISO 800 and then it jumps at ISO 1600. On-screen at 100% there is a slight softness to the images too, but considering these are 12 megapixels images this would not show on most prints or when scaled to fit a standard monitor. It is interesting to see that between ISO 1600 and 6400, the noise pattern is about the same size although the image resolution has decreased.
Overall, the Fuji Finepix F50 is clearly not as noise-free as its predecessors. However, because its resolution is so much higher, most prints from the F50 were comparable to the best lower-resolution cameras, at least until ISO 800, if not until ISO 1600.

Starlet in a wedding dress writhing for the camera
Post-punk princess and Marilyn clone
A farrago of leather,
Dance moves and crosses,
Peroxide, diamonds and New York chic
Corsetry by Gaultier with armoured gold bustier
Religious provocations and soft-core porn
A farrago of makeovers,
Handcuffs, hairstyles,
Sapphism, workouts and Vanilla Ice
Draughty British mansion and a mockney husband,
Spiritual pretensions and adopted airs
A farrago of horses,
Kabbalah, adoption,
Film-flops, facelifts and near divorce
(with apologies to John Masefield)

OK Heresiarch, but there must be a downside to Madonna surely?
- 16 August 2008 at 19:20
As far as I am concerned this aging floosy should be 6' downside !!

Sometimes I feel nowhere near well-read enough to keep up with this blog.

And sometimes I feel nowhere near well-read enough to write it... Try "Quinquereme of Nineveh" if you don't get it.

Excellent stuff! Madonna is the iconic celebrity of today because she is lacking in great beauty or talent, or even much personality, but has oodles of ambition and self-regard.

|Spider Monster
|Height (MAX)
|35 meters
|18,000 metric tons
|Created by
|Redesign by
|Matt Frank
The TRUE queen of Solgell Island was no reptile or insect, but a shadow that dwelled in a deep chasm in the center of the island...a great arachnid of incredible size and aggressive power...KUMONGA. Theorized to be a mutation of an ancient, prehistoric species of spider, Kumonga is likely the last of her kind, and is theorized to be female as well, which would account for both her territorial nature and the likelyhood that she killed and devoured all other members of her species on the island (there's evidence to reinforce the presence of more giant arachnids that once inhabited the island). Kumonga's error, of course, was seeking to make a meal of the young GODZILLA JUNIOR, and incited the wrath of GODZILLA himself. Through a combination of the rapidly dropping temperature and the firepower of both Godzilla and Junior, Kumonga was forced into retreat, and burrowed into the snow in order to sooth her burned exoskeleton.
Kumonga would not reappear until towards the end of the century when she was discovered in the jungles of New Guinea, and promptly coralled by G Force to Monster Island.
- - Exoskeleton resistant to all conventional weaponry
- - Potent venom capable of making even Godzilla woozy
- - Webbing nearly unbreakable, and only disolved by fire.
- - Able to fling hairs on back at foes while retreating (causes eye and throat irritation in giant monstersand can penetrate several inches through steel)

The Crown Prosecution Service will also have its role in prosecuting the case reviewed by the Attorney-General.
Sir John said that lessons needed to be learned. He said: "The lack of justice for Mr and Mrs Taylor, their family and friends is a matter of deep regret. After consultation with the Home Secretary, the chair of the Metropolitan Police Authority and the Mayor of London I have invited the Bishop of Stepney, John Sentamu, to chair an oversight panel."
Other members of the panel will be David Blakey, Inspector of Policing, and Perry Nove, the retiring Commissioner of the City of London Police. Sir John expects the review to be completed by mid-summer.
