It has to be ironic, this. Perhaps 90% of the posts here are about how
one camera has a little more or less noise than another, and here's you
wanting to add considerable noise! Personally, I've never seen a small
amount of noise as a problem, but that's not the fashionable view today.

Either shoot at a high ISO and/or add a neutral density filter to your
lens. You can also use programs like Paint Shop Pro to add noise to an
image.
