Re: Pics taken with your Hero

You don't need to understand ISO, but you should understand that low-light pictures (or any pictures you take where you've set the ISO to 800 manually) will be noisy, just as they are with any other camera.

You claim that every picture you take has "static rain." OK, show it to me.

BTW, I brought up the iPhone because the iPhone has a better camera than the Hero and it still displays noise in low light conditions. There's a lot more to camera quality than megapixels. More megapixels is often a bad thing, actually, since each individual pixel must be smaller and therefore gather less light and produce more noise.
What is wrong with the pic that you got this whole thing started on?! It was good lighting. Had static.
This was with daylight coming in the room, and that's what you wanted to see.

I don't care what you call it honestly if you can fix it. I will call it turd if you want. I want it to not happen!

So what do I need to put my camera on? Hold on... ISO 200 white balance set. Daylight coming in the room...


I gave you examples. What was wrong with my first example though? You have not addressed that. It was good lighting.

I don't think the iPhone matters though. If I can find pics from my Treo Pro that had a crap camera I would, but I have no idea what I did with them. Anyway, they didn't have this problem at all. I actually did know that megapixels don't matter, unless you are stretching the pic, but that is about all I know. Thanks for the explanation because I didn't know that more megapixels caused more noise err... static. Either way. If you have some settings that will work in low light I would love to have them. Maybe less MP pics because they wouldn't be able to gather the light?
