In general, the Auto Lighting Optimizer (Noise Reduction) did help a bit. It also made the image a bit brighter. I wouldn't go higher than the low option as it soften the image. To be honest, I'd rather change location or the quality of the light than use this feature. Maybe it works well with some cameras, but with mine, I don't see that much difference with the low setting and the other ones are not really usable. This is why I personally wouldn't use this option.
