Has anyone heard recordings made in quiet locations with very low 
noise mics using a D50? Curt Olson did some comparisons between 
Hi-MD, a Fostex FR2-LE and a SD 722  and the Fostex held up well to a 
722 when using AT3032 mics. Oryoki posted this list of pros and cons 
on the D50,

but I haven't come across recordings made with low noise mics as yet.
