Good morning, All,
Issue: Correct the amount of ‘NOISE’ using a D500 with a Nikon Zoom 28 – 107mm lens.
Would like to hear from the group what experience they may suggest reducing the amount of noise that appears in D500 photos. Yes, I understand lighter would be helpful, but I do not often have that luxury. I normally shoot with a shutter speed of 320 having an aperture of F8 or F11. Though this setting gives me a sharp picture most of the time, there is still quite a bit of noise as well as spots that appear for unknown reasons. I’ve attached a couple of ‘RAW’ files to give you an example of the issue I am talking about. FYI – I usually use Lightroom or ‘ON1 Photo Raw 2023’ in post editing but the attached pictures have not been modified.
Thanks for your suggestion in advance.

I defer to the advise for camera adjustments already given and while you did not ask for an adjusted copy of your picture I did the following with On1 Raw. I used the healing brush for the ledge under the two panels on the backdrop; the perfect eraser for all other blemishes. Then the following settings were applied: exp. o.15, contrast 16, highlights and mid-tones -100 both, structure 24 and haze -25. I used noise ai with luminance at 100, enhance detail at 4, color I left alone at 100 and micro-sharpening at 20. I exported the picture at 90 quality for jpeg. Hope you like it, Carl
