Noise
I have a question. which is better. to have a pin sharp focal point and lots of noise in the background or remove the noise and have a not so sharp focal point.
Am I being pedantic removing the noise and then getting a focal point that is not pin sharp??
eg.... a photo of a bee was absolutely pin sharp. but there was a lot of noise in the background. is that noise okay. what if somebody buys a print of that bee but then is put off by the background noise.
sorry if the question sounds stupid.... trying to learn
