[] The problem is the 400 ISO setting.. Cameras with the 1/1.8" sensors usually produce quite a bit of noise at ISO 400 and higher. The 1/1.8" sensor is tiny. As a result the sensor sites are comparitivley small. Small sites can't collect that much light so the output requires considerable amplification. The more amplification, the more noise. There isn't much you can do about it other than sticking to ISO 200 or slower. Of course, you can use programs like Neat Image or Paint Shop Pro 9 to reduce the visible noise in your image /after/ taking. If you are careful and not over agressive, the results can be very good. Try it and see for yourself. David |

Is Mac Linux? If so than I've seen a number of users saying they had no (or
little) problems setting PSP 9 up to run on their Linux systems using some sort of conversion program (I think the name was Linsing or something similar in name). Sorry don't know anyone using a Mac to be able to ask them either. Linda "Jaxak" wrote in message ... It does not run on Macs? "Linda_N" wrote in message ...

Paint Shop Pro 9 has a new Digital Camera Noise Removal filter that is by far the best I've seen yet. PS has nothing that touches (including 3rd party plug-ins) that comes close to the control and power of Jasc's DCNR. I experimented with an ISO 800 shot from a P&S using Noise Ninja, Neat Image, several techniques in PS, and finally PSP's DCNR which beat them all hands down (although neither NN or NI were that bad. PS by itself was not good at all in comparison.) Anyway that one filter, plus the new CA filter that fixes fringing in high contrast area edges is well worth the cost of Paint Shop Pro 9 even if you don't use anything else in the program. Linda. |
