I was taking some night shots and since I did not have a tripod I was forced to use a high iso. {shooting in raw}
Of course I now have way to much noise. Is there any fix,?
thanks Rich

richrdstone What sensor size is your camera? APS-C or full-frame? I find ACR noise reduction works "ok" as does the noise reduction filter in PSE. Correcting severe noise invariably results in soft images. What have you tried so far? Clive

Hi Rich, welcome to PSE&M! Glad you found us. For starters, which version of Elements are you using? This information will help us better tailor our suggestions to your inquiry. As you are shooting in Raw, a fair amount of noise (including color noise) can be fixed in the Raw Converter -- Detail > Noise Reduction/Color Noise Reduction. Photoshop Elements - Raw File Processing - Noise Reduction (Scroll down to #25) Photoshop Elements - Color and Camera Raw (Scroll down to Noise Reduction) However, even after converting/editing your Raw file, you may still need to do further noise reduction -- Filter > Noise > Reduce Noise. Photoshop Elements > Noise ReductionNOTE:When applying this filter, zoom in to 100% or higher. This will enable you to see how this filter is changing the individual pixels in your photo. The Strength setting controls the overall effect of this filter. The higher the adjustment, the greater risk of softening your photo. If your photo gets softened and looks blurry, the Preserve Details setting will tell Elements to try to preserve your photo details. The Reduce Color Noise setting adjusts uneven color distribution in your photo. You can go pretty high with this setting without causing harm to your photo.

If you have the Elements + plug-in, you can attack noise in the individual Red-Green-Blue channels; Green is usually the worst.
Also, to preserve detail, you can apply the noise reduction to a separate layer and mask out the detailed areas so that the noise reduction softening does not affect them.
