Suddenly noise in photos

[Sparhawk]

Hi everyone.

Just new here at this forum. Started to look around as my camera is
suddenly giving me a headache. It's a Pentax *istds. Really nice, does
excellent work! Until now. Suddenly there is so much noise in every picture I take. It's really a deteriorated picture now.

I did do a reset of the camera to the factory settings. Hoping that this would help. Maybe a setting got done by accident that was the cause of this. But not so. It happens in pictures inside and outside the house.

Anybody an idea?

Have you checked your ISO and also check the quality of the picture settings, my old camera got set to S at some point or another and all my pictures were so grainy and low quality.

weirdly enough, after another day of figuring it out... a reset of the whole machine, back to factory settings did help. This is the second reset... kind off odd really. Hopefully it won't happen again.
