    Default ARGH! I am an idiot!

    I've been going crazy processing my pics from today. They are all noisy. It just hit me tonight. I had my ISO high to take pictures at the show my son's band was playing.
    and Iforgotto put it back down


    Now I have to go back.

    I'm too dumb to own a camera.

    D'oh! Don't feel too bad, I've done that myself :( Have you heard of Noise Ninja? Maybe that can help? Noise Ninja: The gold standard for image noise reduction

    Try the NR program I sent you...I'll bet it works also.
    I think at one time or another everyone has done that....I know I have on numerous occasions...frustrating as all hell too!

    Lol...just don't do it in Banff...or you might have to come back for a re-shoot....hey....wait a second.........hmmmm........now there's an idea.....

    ha ha.. I actually noticed that earlier today! That is why I asked about the HDR..thinking maybe it was noise from that but then I noticed it on other photos you've taken too. Can't believe I picked up on that!!

    I've done that before..more than once! Grrr

    The only prevention for that sort of thing, is to take Joe McNally's advice and reset the camera before a shoot.

    Probably everybody has done something like this. So don't feel bad. I've forgot to reset things numerous times. From ISO to self timer function etc...

    Could be worse though. A friend of mine took the better part of a wedding shoot forgetting she'd put the camera in manual focus. Painfull mistake..
    Listen, three eyes, don't you try to outweird me, I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal.

    This is why sometimes I look back to the film days with affection, you loaded a roll and that's what you had, most had their favourite film so you didn't worry about ASA setting, white balance, format........

    If I had a penny for every wrong setting I've had I could afford some nice equipment
