Adding noise
Noise or digital noise are terms used to describe the flecks, random points, or grain that will visually distort the photograph when shooting in low light. Noise, in general, occurs when the illumination is low and the digital sensor attempts to record even tiny amounts of light; as a result, noise will get introduced in the photograph. Let's see how we can do that using the Noise effect in Lumion.
