You're shooting at ISO 2000 on a camera with an itty bitty sensor.Resized, it looks messy and obviously noisy but usable.
>>68239Thanks, but advice on how to make it look better is what I'm looking for.
>>68240Obviously he suggested lowering the ISO, implying that an ISO of 2000 is too high, therefore making your pictures come out less than desirable.
Get a tripod. Lower your ISO. Take a longer exposure.
