hmm yeah i dont have a good answer - might help to see the original uncorrected footage - I take it the same noise shows up on the tape when played back to a tv or something?
 
What gamma curve were you using? Try to avoid Cine-Like D as it adds the most noise to your image. Also stick with the Normal color matrix as the others can potentially add some noise. Also make sure your detail is turned down (I like it around -3) and your detail coring is up (I usually go +7). Try decreasing your master pedestal too (mine hovers between -3 and -7). Also use the built in ND when outside and keep your exposure around f4 or f5.6 (sometimes you get extra noise toward the extremes of open or closed). That should minimize your noise as much as possible. Unfortunately MiniDV isn't the best format for keeping noise at a minimum. Hope that helps.

that clip is 1 second long becuase i wanted to export ful quality and upload it quickly

htat is the origrinal footage, and without the b+w u get that same stuff

now i should do a test to see if it does that on the tv
 
thatonejonguy, thanks

my gamma is set to cinelike
and my matrix is cinelkie, i have these because i want the film like
 
Try the cine-like V setting as it has knee protection against highlights and also will minimize the grain some while preserving the cine-like look.

i tried chaning settings to wut u guys said and i still get noise, or the dots jumping all over htre place, anything? does it look like this on the tv
 
thecomo just took a look at your footage again. I think youll find the following settings may help you

Vertical Detail Frequency: Thin
Vertical Detail: 0
Detail: -3
Detail Coring: 0

These are the settings apart from gain (found in the gain control and cinelike settings) that will most effect the level of noise.
