Noise is the bane of digital photographers. In appearance it resembles the grain in film. This picture was taken with a digital camera set at ISO 800, in the corner of a room lit only by a window on the opposite wall (there's an image of the window at the bottom of the glass jar). A cupboard overhangs the frame - it's a dark corner. The picture is "grainy,"; sure - but not much worse than I'd expect from, say, Tri-X under similar circumstances (ev -0.7, for the photogeeks). So then, available-light photography indoors, in a reasonably lighted room, should be entirely possible.
Stay tooned.

Some serious fooling around

Its not really that bad to begin with. A little grainy, but within norms.
Do you have Photoshop? Perhaps you could "tweak" it a bit to improve the quality.
I rely heavily on Photoshop to save photos with strong back lighting and such.
I'm using Apple's Aperture - but you're right. I haven't had time to work on it yet but I think it can still be cleaned up a bit. Meanwhile I'm looking for some kind of indoor activity to shoot (no, not that one - oh no) to give the whole idea a more realistic test.
