As you'd expect for its class, the D300 has an excellent noise profile up to about ISO 1,600. At that point, softness starts to become evident. ISO 3,200 shots aren't noisy, but they start to lose detail when shot using the D300's default noise-suppression settings, and at ISO 6,400 you're left with a more impressionist than photographic look.
