Avoiding Camera Noise Signatures

Step 1Remove the camera info

Remove the camera info
When you take an image with a digital camera, the camera itself leaves a data file which automatically identifies itself. This file is called an EXIF and usually has information like the make of the camera, the ISO setting, the date and time, the pixel setting, etc. This needs to be removed. The easiest way to remove this is to open photoshop and save it for web.

When you save, I recommend using a JPG compression with a quality setting of no better than 60%. This will add a lot of ugly noise make it slightly harder to create a noise signature.
