Different LCD Display

[portrait]

Hello everyone!

I noticed that each time I take a digital portrait from photo using my camera the LCD display is so beautiful and clear. But when I upload them they look so grainy?

It's frustrating because I bought the camera thinking that I could get beautiful pictures instead of grainy ones just like when I use my camera phone only to find out that it's just the same.

The reason is that the image on your small lcd screen is shrunk down so small that you can't see the noise. If your having a lot of noise in your photos when you upload them then you ISO may be to high. If you have lots of light try shooting at ISO 100 or 200 and you should be rid of your noise problem.

If you take your original noisy image and shrink it down to 640x480 you will notice the photo seems to have less noise. So give my suggestions a try and let me know what happens or send me and example. if you want to email me the original file that has the exif information I can better tell you what is going on.
