Film Grain

Top  Previous  Next

 

The film grain effect allows you to add noise to your images in a way that it matches the classic photo films. Only dark areas of the image will get noise while light areas wonÆt. This effect can be applied to color as well as b/w images but the best result is achieved when applying it to b/w images.

 

By selecting this effect it will open the settings dialog where you can set its parameters.
