First Light question/noise removal at DVinfo.net

Using First light is there certin setting that can be used to remove grain from video shot in low light such as a wedding reception? I know the noise is in the color channels but which channels should I start with to reduce the gain/noise if its possible. I know receptions are not perfect because they trun the lights way down and I do use an on camera light but very spearingly not to be intrusive.

Thanks.

Noise reduction is not a filter within First Light, although you can reduce the perceived noise through color correction.
