HELP Please - Editing Noise

[callyolson]

<p>I shot newborn triplets for a friend and now am kicking myself because I had my ISO at 1600. getting the pictures on my computer they have bad noise. (of course because my iso should have been at 400 tops).<br>

So outside of I messed up my settings I need to save these images. Can you help I have never really had to take noise out of my images before. (at least not with great luck)<br>

Editing software I have is Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS5. There are about 25 images I am going to need to correct so I can syn the settings in lightroom or batch in photoshop, I am comfortable in both.<br>

Help and thanks.</p>

<p>How big are the prints going to be? </p>

<p>Noise reduction, even in Lightroom 3, was very good. Only you can decide how much post-production is enough. Run a test print at a size you would expect to have these images printed and see. </p>

<p>+1 Rob. noise reduction in LR is excellent. Google for tutorials on how best to use it.</p>

<p>Which camera, Cally?</p>

<p>1600 ISO isn't a "high" ISO these days, and Lr should be able to manage easily.</p>
