This is a Canon 10D DSLR at ISO100. Yes, there's some noise, and it's a tad
more noticeable than it was before I darkened it. I think it's gentle enough
that I could probably reduce it to insignificance with NeatImage. What I've
done a couple times, since NI became available as a PS plugin, is to do the
noise filtering, then use Fade to cut its effect roughly in half, so that I
don't wind up with the obvious filtered effect that NI can give you
full-strength.
