One of my favorite things about being retired is having the time to experiment. Recently I purchased DxO PureRAW 6 because it provides advantages in certain circumstances over Adobe with Fujifilm RAW files. I got the idea to try it with some of my favorite older Nikon low light images. I have to say I'm impressed. This is an image captured in May 2009 with a Nikon D300 and the legendary Nikkor 17-55mm and reprocessed this morning. I'm very pleased with the results from a 17 year old capture and now need to reconsider some other older images for "updating".

One more even older image. The improvement in noise reduction over the years has been amazing. This is a 20 year old capture using a D70s and a Nikkor 50mm/1.8D. Just wished I had used a faster shutter speed to reduce the boat blur.

Think like you did 20 years ago. ISO noise got unacceptable above 400 so of course you would choose slower shutter. ;)
