The image was severely underexposed. One can try to "save" it by increasing brightness and lifting shadow when processing the raw (Canon CR2) file in ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) before further editing in Photoshop CS6. However, by increasing brightness and lifting shadow, one introduces a lot of noise -- this is a weakness of Canon raw data from Canon sensors.

Not quite. With a Canon it is better to raise the ISO for the exposure so that the histogram is to the right, but in this case I bet the main reason the data is noisy is because so little light was captured.

Check out the unofficial Rebel Talk FAQ. Sorry it's out of date, but DPReview still won't allow us to edit our articles.
