[QUOTE="WeeHector, post: 189991, member: 14301"] The problem is one which only came into being with the digital age. With film, the grain was pronounced at 400 ISO and it was generally used for the express purpose of getting grainy B/W photos. They are extremely pleasing to the eye. With colour, the effect has to be matched to the subject. Now, however, we we are into pixel counts where it is no longer that pleasing graininess but is actually just pixel noise which affects only certain parts of the shot. I haven't tried my D3100 at high ISO yet but will give it a try to see if it is possible to get an all-round grainy effect which resembles old film. It would be nice to get back to the old ways.
