That's what I read in Ken's translation: film-grain-like noise.

Have, for many years, been a big fan and user essentially grainless
25, 50 and 100 ISO films.
These were/are the films that I have replaced with digital, not so much
for its work flow advantage, but because I see a cleaner more detrailed
image.
If film is your thing, knock yourself out.
