Hi sppavam. These images are caught between 800 -1600 ISO in very low light. Any sharpening simply adds more noise. Some of the lower iso images are sharpened if can.

So I guess now would be a good time to learn a thing or two about image sharpening. Good luck with future gigs!

Have you tried noise ninja or anything like that?

Well, that’s why I said time to learn a thing or two. Look into CS2’s smart sharpen, and masking. You need not sharpen the entire image, just the key points.

Sometimes the noise works well, espescially with black and white. Cs2’s noise reduction is much better than CS1. I have looked at noise ninja, but am not prepared to shell out

Noise Ninja has done wonders for me, esp. for 800+ ISO images with lots of noise. If you plan on doing more concert gigs, get it! It is worth the extra $
