High ISO post processing
Hey guys,
I'm going to be shooting a concert this weekend and am anticipating the need for a high ISO (hopefully not over 400) and the 50/1.8. However, I am trying to think ahead to post processing and am at a loss.
Is there anything in particular that one should do in PP with noisy high ISO images? I have a rebel XT which you probably know doesn't make the cleanest low light photos.
thanks!

Use a plug in for Photoshop called Noise Ninja. PM'd
Also, shoot to the right & reduce the exposure in RAW.
By overexposing 2/3 stop to the right, your light meter will read 2 notches right.
For example... when in Manual mode... I would shoot here:
-2--1--0--1--+2
Instead of here:
-2--1--0--1--+2

Norman showed me this... In Camera Raw (if you shoot RAW), you can move the Luminance Smoothing slider over to help reduce noise also. Depending on your shoot, a little grain might look good.
