Hello, I just tried my first batch of ten...and nearly all came back with this statement,

"Noise--Noise, film grain, over-sharpening, or artifacts at full size."

Does anyone know what types of things this may refer to? Or is it just a general statement? Like "artifacts at full size," I just don't get.

Thanks...
Kevin

These are terms you will have to understand if you are interested in stock work. Digital noise is basically the same as grain on film images. Here are some sites that will help explain what they means.

The best thing I have learned is to view your images at 100% ( every last bit) and you will quickly learn what noise and such is.

Most photos look great in a 4x6 but when they are enlarged the truth comes out.

IT will be there and will jump right out at you at 100%

Best of luck to you.

Hi Kevin I have the same problem, I find its better to look at them at 200% and if need be use the blur tool over the noise in the shadows and that will cure it.
