I know it can be turned off in DPP; and it is very easy to do so; just means an extra step for processing the raw. Bit of a pain since I copy images to my linux box raid drive from the camera; then I have to copy the files to local disk on the window machine to process (I shoot raw+jpg so I can use jpg if they are good enough). The problem here is that DPP will not allow me to access the samba (network) drive exported by the linux box (this is the first software I used that would not allow that). Copying the files is not a huge deal but annoying. Anyways for the xsi i was amazed how much detail was lost by the jpg out of camera due to slight (level 2) lum. noise reduction being applied by the camera; on the other hand it wasn't needed in the first place for iso 100 images I was taken. Other than that I'm fairly happy with the xsi. Very tempted to get the 5dmk2 but don't really want to deal with the weight/(and more so) bulk.[/quote]

The latter is what I always thought too. I started with a 350D in dslr-land. Nice and small. although my Pentax analog cameras were smaller <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
Next i needed better high iso performance, and via a set of 400Ds and a 40D I ended up with a 5D Classic. When I saw the images from that camera, I just took the extra bulk and weight for granted. And next there was the 5D II. Even better <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
