Hi everyone
I was forced to use an old P&S camera last week, which produced really poor pics, plagued with noise due to low light conditions.

I have one picture that i would really like to do an OOB edit on but in its current condition its not worth it.
I have read somwhere on here about a program called noise Monkey? or somthing like that.

can anyone shed any light on this subject?
Or even do some magic on my picture.

here is a small lower res version of the picture.

Had a quick play with your low res image

only subtle because of the low res post a link to the high res and I will try again.
 
hmmm not sure about the edit about, looks a bit like you put one of those glass texture filters on the image
 
I used Neat Image to clean this one up - its difficult to keep such a small image sharp - so sorry if its a bit soft.

There's really not much point running small re-sized pictures like this through a noise reduction program. The original was taken with a 3MP camera, but this image only has 0.25MP - so in order to re-size it the software had to combine 12 pixels into every one, and that automatically takes a lot of noise out. If torque22 could post the full-sized image, or a 100% crop from it, then that would be a fairer test.
 
thanks for the replies and edits so far everyone
