Re: When extreme high ISO is better than nothing: a rundown on my experiences shooting ballet

Try keeping the ISO lower and take an underexposed shot and raise it in PP. Here is my image shot at ISO 800, f 8, 1/125 sec no PP. Shot with K-5 and DA 50 -200. First is a jpg of the original raw with no PP, as you can see there is nothing to see. Second is a jpg of the raw after raising exposure +5 in Camera Raw and last is the final image. The downside is the amount of PP required. Probably could be better if I had a noise reduction program.
