Photoshop :: Grainy Images
Apr 20, 2003
I've just recently recieved a digital camera as a gift, and through using it have discovered what i'm guessing is a problem in my Photoshop color settings. In the past i've largely used photoshop for web design work, and not really with higher quality large photos. Anyways, when i'm opening my photo's in photoshop i'm finding extra graininess. I'd blame the camera, but when i open the pictures with windows' image previewer, even at "actual size" the graininess is not as severe as it is in photoshop. Not having had the necessity, i haven't delved into the color correction etc. side of photoshop yet.

I have had Photoshop CC and have found large images (both RAW and JPEG) import really grainy. This hasnt happened with previous Photoshops ive owned.
when i scale the image size down it seems to remove most of the grain. ive found one other thread talking about this but they ended up agruing about termonolgy. Im not really keen for that.

I Have my graphics processor as "Normal" and I haven't messed about with the settings much!

I am making a large back drop with a collage of photos of people. each image ranges from 8x12 to 16x 20....the photos I got from the professional photographers are showing up fine. My photos, taken with a 5D in Raw and exported at high res are showing up grainy...not sharp! I tried the raster settings like a friend suggested and set it to 150ppi or even 300ppi and no change..

All of my images look grainy in the dark areas in CC, but not in CS5. Is there a display setting that I'm missing? Side note, the saved images look fine. They only look bad in the CC UI. Photshop CC and CS5 64-bit on Windows 7

i have a pic i took with my dig camera and a "border" for a birthday card that i want to use...the border is perfectly sized for a 4x6 pic...so i shrank the pic to 4x6 and added a new layer and placed the border on top of the pic....then i added a "Happy Birthday" text layer on top...when i saved the pic as a jpg and had it printed, everything was grainy....the words and border were the most obvious but the pic was nothing to write home about....
what should i do (even converting the RAW image to a jpg) to make sure the pic, border, and text come out nice and crisp?

I’ve designed the front and back covers in PhotoShop. However, they want the whole document in Microsoft Word. So what I did was make a text box and put the image in it and stretched it over the page.
When I do that, it’s grainy, AND it doesn’t cover the whole page.
Is there something I can do to make that work? Or is this not possible? TO get a clean image from photoshop into Word?

I bet I've messed with some setting somewhere and forgot to change it back, but I can't for the life of me fix this problem.
It would be best if I don't have to add a blur to the gradient to get it to look right,

when I lighten up a photo certain dark areas (not all and not all the time) get very grainy / noisy looking. Is there anyway to remove or compensate for that? Unfortunately, I was shooting in very low-light level conditions and I could not use a flash (shots of horses). I would like to be able to get clean 8x10 prints out of these, but the grain is so bad.

I am using CS6 and doing various editing on photos. They are raw files initially and once I am finished with the editing and flattening I save them as .png files. The photos look great when I view them in photoshop yet when I look at them in Bridge or other programs (Windows), they look grainy and the colors appear muted.Â

I have been taking some photos of people here and there and have realized I set my ISO too high. Now some of my photos and grainy and look awful. I have tried to do the noise reduction in Elements, but it still seems like it hasn't changed much.

I had about twenty seconds to take this picture last night but only to notice it is rather dark due to the limited lighting in that area. I have tried various settings in Lightroom to brighten it up enough to see the moon and the building in the foreground but the pictures just come out to grainy and a slight purple look. what i can do for this?

We have come across a problem using Adobe Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6 on a MAC. We use Illustrator CS6 for putting together the graphics and use Photoshop CS6 for editing. When we save the image in full res and browse the image - the image looks grainy both on a Mac and a PC.

Can you correct a very grainy picture in photoshop elements 12? Picture was taken with a Sony A500 in low light at 6400 ISO (used to stop action) and Raw Format/JPEG. Tryed to correct in raw with no luck.

I'm running AutoCAD MEP 2012.The user with the problem is running AutoCAD 2012.
We have a drawing with an excel spreadsheet pasted into the Paper Space as an embedded OLE object. I open the drawing and it prints fine. When he prints the drawing, the spreadsheet is very grainy and hard to read.
I tried plotting to a PDF and several different printers with same results every time. The only difference I noticed about his Plot Dialog Window was in the "Shaded Viewport Options".
When he selects from the "Quality" dropdown, the values for DPI associated with each option are different than mine. For example, on "Quality" setting "Normal", my window shows 300 DPI and his shows 100 DPI.
I tried setting his to "Custom" with a value of 300 DPI, but it seems to have no effect.
May be unrelated, but I also noticed that his LWDEFAULT system variable somehow got set to 09. I had to set that back to 25.

I've not long started shooting in RAW with my Nikon D700 and have had some pleasing results so far. However, I've just started editing in Lightroom and have noticed that my RAW images are incredibly grainy. I don't think it's the ISO because this has happened across the board ... even with a very low ISO. Obviously the jpegs seem much better as they've received treatment, but no amount of tweaking the details section of Lightrom seems to solve the problem. My work flow was: Shoot in RAW + jpeg > Manually upload the files to my PC > Add the raw files to Lightroom > Edit them via the developing module.
I've uploaded a cropped version of one of the images. Please note the white specks in the dark area of the RAW image.

I have a dwg that has a jpg image inserted.  I just got a new computer & Civil 3D 2013 software was reloaded. Now the jpg image looks grainy. The Image Quality is set to High & Raster is active. Where do I need to go & make a change so images appear clear?Â

I recently converted from Sketchup 8 to 3DS and I've been trying to render some scenes with Vray but they all come out super grainy, like the rendering has a layer of noise on top of it. I have a lot of experience with Vray for Sketchhup and have never encountered this. I attached an example.

I have an image inserted into a cadd drawing. When I pdf the drawing the image looks grainy. When the drawing is printed directly from cadd the image looks fine....so it appears to be an issue going from cadd to pdf format.Â
How can I make the image print clearly to pdf?

got an out of the blue commission for a t-shirt .... now I'm getting a crash course in Illusrator. Been using it all of one day.
Â
Here's the trouble though - when I use my brushes to make actual brush strokes, the resulting paths look "grainy" - like they aren't vectors/paths.
Â
From what I understand, even drawing freehand with the brush should produce vectored lines - and I can play with points within those freehand brush strokes. But when I zoom out, the strokes I drew with the brush look almost "pixelly", while the ones done with the pen tool look nice and smooth (I should note this is a custom brush that I made, butt the other paths that I've applied the brush to look fine).
Â
Is this normal? Should I resign myself to having to go back over everything using the pen tool (there's a lot of fine, irregular line work)? Or is there some setting of the brush or special key that I'm missing?I know it's small, but you might be able to see what I mean where the main vertical line meets up with the angled line. The near-vertical is brushed in, the angled one is a path with brush overlay....

I always convert my Nikon .NEF files to .DNG to work with them in Lightroom, but this week I opened some of the .NEF files in Nikon View NX2 and noticed they looked less grainy than their own .DNG counterparts. The .NEF file had some grain, which is to be expected, but the .DNG had noticeably more.
I was told that .DNG conversion was a lossless process, so I was surprised to find ANY difference between the two files. I also noticed some (relatively small, but non-zero) differences between their histograms.
Â
Why would there be ANY differences at all in the NEF-->DNG conversion process? Is it not really lossless? Is there something wrong with my settings?
I'm using a Mac OSX 10.8.4 (Mountain Lion), Nikon D5100 camera, Nikon View NX2 ver.2.7.6, , and Lightroom 4.4 with Camera raw 7.4.
