I then processed the same images with version 2.4. The resultsīefore I updated to the new version, I processed motifs from the last article again with Denoise AI 2.3 and saved them as 16-bit tiff. In terms of handling, however, Denoise AI is made to be used as a plugin. Of course, you can directly read in RAW and thus define the denoising as the 1st processing step. The tool offers 3 automatic modes with the possibility of manual intervention.
The new version offers more file formats such as HEIC and fixes problems with DNG files. Denoise is available for Windows and MAC and can be included as a plugin for Lightroom and/or Photoshop CC. Of course, you can also denoise with Lightroom, but the results are better with Denoise AI. The tool is currently available again for just under $60, and the update to the version is of course free for version 2 users. The higher the ISO setting and/or the smaller the sensor, the more prone the images are to noise. I have reported about Topaz Denoise AI several times here on the blog and last week Topaz released version 2.4 and at the same time the software is currently available at a reduced price.
