Is it normal to see so much noise even at ISO 100 with DNG? I'm opening the pictures in Lightroom 5.3 and I even daylight photos end up with lots of noise. I also noticed that DNG are not being tagged with GPS information.
Noise is really high, even for smartphone, original JPG was better than what I could get from Lightroom 5.3 without heavy tweaking
Well, the noise is a lot more "sharper" than the processed jpg, what should be expected. But im pretty sure photoshop algorythim can do better than the camera processing
Can you show us these photos that gave a lot of noise, so we can get a better understanding of what's going on?

I noticed in Lightroom I was really only seeing the noise when I started to zoom in.

Looks okay but if you zoom in with no noise reduction.

I have never had the pleasure of getting to use RAW and I was just wondering if it was normal.
I mean overall I am so much happier having RAW. I can tweak just parts of it for lighting, change the exposure, heal brush works a lot better, fix that awful yellow tint, etc.
It looks like you've been testing your 1020's black update at a similar place to me! Those two pictures I uploaded were from Disney World
I've been considering compiling an album to share, but I need to go through about 400 pictures. I'd also like to compare it to my friend's Sony DSLR, which is about 800 pictures to sift through. I'll get to it though.
I think the user vlado could go into more detail about the processing , I am sure it his him that done some research into it at some point with his 808 as the processing is that good and gets that good results , lets also not forget that the 41mp raw image doesn't have the benefit of oversampling like the 5mp jpeg pureview image does ;-)
Its normal for you to see noise in the raw files.. if you want noise free RAW files I suggest investing into a full frame DSLR
The jpeg processing on the 808 is indeed very good. The color reproduction could be better, but in terms of noise reduction its extremely efficient. The thing I like the most about it is that it responds very well to post processing. Of course is not as good as RAW, but its really good for jpeg.
I don't even know if the 808 can do RAW to be honest.. that built in image processor (DSP) could be a limitation when it comes to that.
The black update for the 1020/1520 brings the processing much closer to the pre-windows phone algorithms that Nokia were using, which is imo are way better than before.. I am sorry but whatever the 1020 shipped with was sh*tty.. its much better now. As soon as I saw pics from the 1520 I knew that black was a step in the right direction.
I also noticed that DNG files don't have geotags although 5mp JPEG copies do have GPS information. Can anyone give some info on this? Is it ok? Or are there any ways of fixing this issue?I also noticed that DNG are not being tagged with GPS information.
