I shot with ISO 1600 to help blow out the background.
Should I lower the ISO and up the exposure time? They look grainy and the case is black so this is not portraying exactly how the case looks ...
Thanks ahead of time for the help ...

I use higher ISO all the time and Topaz DeNoise is an excellent program for reducing it. Also, a lot of people will over expose just a tad when using higher ISO. Then, pull it back in PP. An over exposed image, even at very high ISO, will show a lot less noise than one that is underexposed. If you are shooting RAW, you can always pull back from being a full stop over exposed, but all you really need is about 1/3 or 2/3 overexposed. Play around with it until you figure out what works best for you. I have view many images shot at 3200 ISO on cameras that people complain about the noise on. It is all in the exposure. If you expose it right, you can reduce the noise. 1Ds Mk II, 1D Mk II, 50D, 40D, XT (for my son), 17-40L, 24-105L, Bigma 50-500 EX DG, Sigma 150 Macro EX DG, Tokina 12-24 AT-X, Nifty Fifty, Tamron 28-300 (for my son), 580ex II, 430ex II
