Film Grain

[ukzombie]

I wonder if someone can give me an explaination of Film grain without all the technical jargon please?

Thanks

Think of it as being something like a mosaic picture.
From a distance it can look like a painting...but close-up...you can see the indavidual "tiles" that make-up the
"picture" The finer the grain, the smaller the "tiles"
For a more technical explanation of WHAT is film grain,
do a Google or Wikipedia of film grain.
hope this helps you.

Film grain also becomes more noticable as film speed (ISO) increases.
