Folks,
I've been thinking about noise, how much and how little we want in our images.
I figured a good place to start is a low noise camera. Then we want to stack a collection to reduce the noise further. Personally, I don't like noise reduction techniques as featured in popular image processing software as I feel there's always a trade-off with detail.
So, how much noise do you get from your subs, and how much do you accept in your pre-processed stack?
Just curious...I'm interested in "benchmarking" my process so I know where I should stop
All thoughts welcomed...
Cheers,
Dunk
