noise in shadow, dark areas
  • A friend has a af101. It gets absurd noise in dark areas, even with a samuri recorder. What settings will tone this down? enlarge this to clearly see. This has been graded but noise was same out of camera. thanks.

  • was looking more for in camera scene settings.

  • With a ton of contrast like in your scene, there is no other cure than better lighting. The AF100 (like the GH2) is not capable of very high dynamic range.

  • in settings select iso 100-200

  • gh2 does way better than this. It may not resolve what's in shadow areas all that well, but it doesn't spray noise everywhere. This is not a more pleasing constant grain, it's buzzy noise.
