A method used in digital imaging to reduce noise that occurs during exposure. To do this an extra image or sequence of images are taken with the camera CCD covered or the telescope closed. The resulting dark frame(s) record the camera's electronic noise and can be used, via image processing software, to subtract noise from the "real" images taken under the same conditions.
