This image has had some noise reduction done, but that's all. It's original is in RW2 format (RAW) and taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5 (Micro 4/3)

ISO 160 14mm f/6.3 1/400 sec

Image size 1958x1101 - 14.19MB.

So I believe it's possibly too small to meet the minimum Megapixel specs. This is 2.1 Megapixels. I think the minimum is 4MP.

If you want to shoot for stock, then it's best to use full resolution and to shoot in raw.

You then have a lot more control in post-processing.

Also be careful about your ISO. Don't have it too high. High ISO introduces more noise.

Your camera is fine. Just know its limitations.

This is interesting. One person tells me I have noise, and another is saying there isn't. Personally, I can't see any noise unless I enlarge it to three times its size and then maybe it's not noise?

So maybe someone with more expertise than I have can point out the issue for me? Thanks.

Why do I have noise in my images? Good question. In this case, I confess I'm struggling to see much noise even at some magnification. The tree-clad mountains so look a bit noisy though, and the clouds need a little. If I de-noise the image it actually loses some resolution, however, there could be some improvement. Let me see what I can do.

It can't be noise - if so your camera need repair ...

The sensor size is small - Micro 4/3 - so this can/could be an issue. This is a disadvantage of using 4/3 sensor size.

You still have noise in your image. Noticeable in the sky area and the ranges.

And yes. minimum is 4MP:

Thanks.  I'll look into the noise issues again. I can't use this image and others in the same series though. I shot them all too small. LowRes... won't do that again. Not to worry. I live an learn.

But removing noise, now there's something I'm still working with.

Why do you have noise in your images? It's usually not visible in photographs if they the exposure is ok ..
