Help cleaning up a image? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

Was wondering if anyone here could clean this up for me maybe?.I just got a new digital camera and we wanted to take some pics of the dogs to send to relatives and i for the life of me cant figure out why it came out so shitty in quality?Any help with this pic would be greatly appreciated

its poopy quality for two reasons:

1) Shutter speed was too low, so you have a ton of camera shake going on.
2) Low light = high ISO - which on a compact digital camera = tons of noise in the image.

Can you not reshoot the shot but with flash? - that will fix both of the problems above.

That image is too far gone to do much with in Photoshop.

Image is too dark (light from windows trick camera sensor)
Resolution is too small to do major repair.
Couldyou redo pic with you camera?

You bought a "new" digital camera and it does not have a flash (and takes shots like the one you posted) ?

If you paid more than a dollar for it you were robbed mate.

**b91ZmxzX** · 01-15-2010, 04:51 AM

I thought all cameras came with a flash?

Then i have no idea how to make it go off.....Im getting more and more pissed by the minute with this thing.

a proper expensive one wouldnt.

thats why you tended to have to buy them on pro camera's before digital came out.

do all DSLR's have flashes ?

**casinobonuswer** · 01-15-2010, 04:57 AM

Struggling a bit, but on first attempt...

Do you have option "AUTO" on camera. That option should adjust many important settings.

**enrisaabsotte** · 01-15-2010, 05:02 AM

Which camera is it?

**flopay** · 01-15-2010, 05:07 AM

Some, but not all. Low and mid range Canon DSLRs for example include a (fairly crappy) pop-up flash.

My Canon 30D and 5D MkII do not have inbuilt flash. The idea is that you'd buy an external flash and attached it to the hotshoe on the top of the camera.

**Amirmsheesk** · 01-15-2010, 05:07 AM

I think i fixed it, ... "i think" lol , thanks for all the help guys,really grateful

BTW its a cheapo camera we picked up at the supermarket for like $20 i know i wasnt expecting the best but i was expecting something a little better then the first pic

**casinobonuswer** · 01-15-2010, 05:14 AM

Low light situations is where a cheapo camera will really suffer more than usual. In daylight it might not look so bad.

there is the problem .. i'm surprised it even turned out this good..

i got my 5yr old son one of those it was super duper crappy (even worse then ur shot). returned it went into a 2nd hand shop bought a 5mpix HP camera much much better (for $25).... plus it has a 1.5" lcd on the back.
