ISO 800 w/ DSLR w/ Sony 6MP Sensor
Posted: Thu Aug 25, 2005 5:53 am
I'm new to noise reduction and Neat Image. I don't have time right now to educate myself deeply about techniques, but I'm amazed and thrilled with the results using Neat Images' default settings on ISO 3200 & ISO 1600 shots.
On ISO 3200 and 1600, losing a little detail is a small price to pay for getting rid of the noise. But on ISO 800, the noise is much more subtle, and the default settings lose a lot of detail.
Any suggestions on basic settings to try with ISO 800?
I'm shooting RAW with a Pentax *ist D (Sony's 6MP APS-C sensor), and converting to 16-bit TIFF in Bibble. I'm using the Pro version of Neat Image to keep all workflow in 16-bit TIFF. Picture Window Pro for all other post-processing.
Thanks,
Greg
