Noise

In addition to the negative impact on the quality of data, noise also increases file size on memory cards.

Random noise

Occurs:

• Due to insufficient amount of light
• Due to high temperature of the sensor chip

When shooting under good lighting conditions, the level of random noise is almost zero.

Dark noise

Occurs:

• During long image exposures
• At high temperature
• Due to the age of the image sensor

Amplified noise

Occurs:

• At higher settings of ISO sensitivity

Eliminating noise

• Choose a camera with a sufficiently large sensor chip and large sensing points
• Manual setting the ISO sensitivity to a lower value
• Use a tripod
• Use a flash
• Reduce exposure times
• Use Noise Reduction
• Use software programs
