Reducing noise from digital images

nirav April 11th, 2007

I have been taking a lot of pictures lately, and one problem I found difficult to deal with was the noise in them. Some of the images come up very clean, but some - especially the ones taken in low light and high ISO are very noisy. I set out to find out how to reduce noise from the images. After a bit of reading and some looking around, I figured there is no simple way to do this for me.

There are some Photoshop plugins and actions available to reduce noise. A lot of tips on how to do this and other techniques of getting better photographs. I couldn’t find something simple that I can do on my Mac! Something that could even integrate with iPhoto.

So for now, I am sticking with better lighting and normal ISO rates! If you expected some nifty tricks on the topic, sorry for letting you down!
