This reached 13 samples in 30 minutes on a
P640 64bit machine

But the Rendered image won't reach the desired look from
the preview window.

Is this a bug or should I let her go for longer?

Preview is not aimed to show the final image exactly about quality.
It's not an accurate solution and it's just "preview" as read. :D

Understandable

But I prefered what I was seeing in the Preview window.

I think your preview is just brighter (aside from the visible artifacts) . If you would wiat lond eneugh, the final solution would brighten up as much as your preview shows you.

I might be wrong, but this is what Ive experienced so far. Under lvl 16-18 the image can be much darker than the final result. If this noise level is accepatbel for you, just adjust the shutter or ISO to get a brighter image.

For me, the preview looks better most of the time. And i`m allways waiting: when to hell i get the full image look the same! :lol:

And here, another thing I want to say is; it seems like you played the sliders while rendering and now it doesn't show actual settings. So you'll be able to see a parallel output on next sample update regarding your new slider parameters.

The first thing I adjusted was the sliders
At around the 2nd sample.

I guess some patience are in order, it was just a test
but I was interested in why it didn't quite look right.

For what it's worth, here are the two images at the same size:

hi InThe City

you say you changed the sliders quite at the beginning, but they don't affect the output in the render-window until you turn on the 'maintain these values'-option. if you do so, it'll take 1 'iteration' to show the effect as it
shows up in the preview-pic.

hope this helps
