I shoot raw fine and the noise is visible at 100%.

What I run into is shooting a car or truck with pleasing exposure on the exterior and then trying to crank up the shadow exposure to get some definition in the black of the wheel well. What I got with my D-300 was a bunch of colored pixels mixed in with the black. The D-610 images withstand this extreme manipulation much better. You can actually see a little detail instead of a weird blackish mess.

I was hoping I could find a good example for you, but I'm on the road and don't have a good one on my laptop. All I have is some shots of a model truck. Here are screen shots.



Before turning up the shadow exposure




After turning up the shadow exposure. Notice there are no color pixels in the wheel well. With my old D-300 there would be speckles of red and blue.
