Title: G10 High ISO
Post by: thierrylegros396 on January 02, 2009, 06:10:50 am

Although having lower resolution, ISO3200 in the G10 can output better JPG than ISO1600 (in appearance for sure).

As Fuji or other manufacturers do in their Compacts.

Do programs exist that can use RAW files to output directly a lower resolution JPG but with good averaging to remove noise more efficiently ?

For example if we can take the 14.7MPixel CR2 files to output a 3.7MPixel file, with each pixel beeing the average of the four "original pixel file", it surely could give good results.

Or an averaging "color by color" of the 4 Pixels in the Bayer Matrix ?!

Does it exist, which program(s) can do that ?!

Have a Nice Day.

This would be similar to the in-camera capability of the 5D Canon to output sRAW files that are "condensed/small" versions of the 21.1 Mpix RAW. I think I read somewhere that these are very high quality conversions of the full image. I haven't seen any comparison images. Maybe someone in the group here can provide some examples.
