Getting rid of Grain and Noise in pictures?

Post by Darzeth »

This is more of a capture question but I put it under editing since I was wondering if it can be done while editing too. Is there any way to get rid of Grain and Noise from film. I went on the adobe website and they have a upgrade to get rid of grain and noise from a third party but for the actual best quality you need to buy the 100 dollar version which i currently do not have. So im curious is there away to do it or even a capture program that can help with doing this. I do understand it is also do to the camera I use which cant be fix from the camera itself.

To be honest with you. The only reasonable way without the expense of mass amounts of money is to light your film. If you light it well enough, grain shouldn't be a problem.

I found a really good setting on my camera that makes the video look it's best: spotlight, whatever the equivalent is. It makes the dark look dark, rather than grey and grainy...

film day for night

"Day-For-Night

Day-for-night (DFN) photography is an effect that makes a scene recorded in daylight to appear as if it were at twilight. This is usually accomplished by the use of a filter that both underexposes by about two stops, and can also produce a bluish color overcast. Lighting, contrast, and other factors contribute to the reality of this effect.

Tiffen offers the Cool DFN filter, which is a lavender-blue color traditionally associated with dusk or twilight emulation with day-for-night effects. The Tiffen Monochromatic DFN filter is a bright yellow-green, almost the color complement (opposite) of the Cool DFN. When you use this, and perform the necessary color-correction in post processing, you will not have all of the original colors available, producing a more realistic monochromatic effect that simulates actual silvery moonlight. Choice of which one to use is a matter of opinion. Both require an additional underexposure by ½ to 1-1/2 stops above not compensating for them in the first place. Advance testing is recommended."
