NOISE AND GRAIN


Quote:
Action is the foundational key to all success.
Pablo Picasso


What is better than a nice trip where you can take your camera and feel like a kid in a candy store???that was my weekend in Chicago,I love buildings,noise,traffic,and art,a lot of art,on the streets ,museums,hotel,people;i took some pics everything in manual with my 35-75 nikon lens,what do you think??
And this is more important photography info:
Noise and grain
Thermal noise, produced by heat and manufacturing defects, degrades shadow areas of electronic images with random pixels of the incorrect colour. Film grain becomes obvious in areas of even and delicate tone. Grain and film sensitivity are linked, with more sensitive films having more obvious grain. Likewise, when used at high sensitivity settings, digital camera images show more image noise than those made at lower sensitivities.

Nearly all digital cameras apply noise reduction to long exposure photographs to counteract thermal noise. For very long exposures, the image sensor must be operated at low temperatures to prevent noise affecting the final image. Film grain is not affected by exposure time, although the apparent speed of the film changes with lengthy exposures, a phenomenon known as reciprocity failure
