do you use noise reduction on your camera if available? (at higher ISO’s)?
Author: admin Category: Noise Reduction
and should you in low light photography for example?
here is the thing- when you use the in camera noise reduction, you have to wait for it to process for as long as whatever your shutter speed is. if you are shooting at 1/120th then thats how long you will have to wait after you take the picture, but if you are taking a 10s exposure then your actual exposure will take 20s. also, the reason why you get noise is because of heat on the sensor, and so as I found out the other night of a shoot, the longer your exposure, and the longer you spend taking pictures at one time the heavier your noise will be and the noise reduction wont do much anyways ( so if you are taking 10 second exposures you can bet that after the 30th 10 second exposure you will see more noise than on the first exposure.
also the noise reduction is throwing info out of your image and that is always bad to let your camera do. the very best thing is to learn MANUAL techniques to fix it in photoshop, OR learn to love it like we used to love film grain.

No. Use good noise reduction software instead.

In low light, I’d stick to a lower ISO, use a tripod, and deal with longer exposures. You’ll get the best looking shots that way.

nope, I generally recommend against using in camera image enhancing mechanisms. I prefer to do all this on my computer. Noise ninja is a very good tool for the purpose.
