Tina,

I knew that you and a few others used this technique to reduce noise  
when the M8 first came out. I never understood why and never tried  
it. It's a good article. Even though noise seems to be less of a  
problem with the new firmware, I think I'll give the underexposure a  
try. Thanks for the link.
