Noise reduction

[danielchtong]

Thanks to Roy who has reduced the noise level of thesetwo pict. Next time if you have noisy pict, email that to Roy to fix it.

Maybe I got that in film days, post processing is always the last thing I want to do.

Daniel, I use a fast (though not necessarily sophisticated) program called Noiseware. The Community version is free and it does a decent job of cleaning up images.

I use Neat Image and it works pretty well. One thingI have foundis that noise reduction works best on the full picture. If you are going to crop, do the noise reduction first and then crop it.

I will second Glen. I use both Neat Image and Noise Ninja. However i just feel more Comfortable With Neat Image. I use the Home + version and it plugs into all the major Programs(PSE, PSP, PS)
Both are great programs though.

I use the Imagenomic Noiseware plug-in with PSCS2, very rarely do I change it's default settings, it does an excellent job. I've tried Noise Ninja, but don't think I've ever fully understood it. ... Jack.
