Not that I know of. It is creating an entirely new RAW file because it has to rewrite the data with the AI adjustments. It's not simply reducing the noise in the image, its reducing the noise while adding AI elements like details and such. I think that's why it needs to write a new file entirely.

It's very unstable in LR on Win. 1 in 5 tests I get a result, some just hangs (20 minute render time!), comes up with a "Unknown error occurred" and once turned of graphics card support! Unusable for me. But the results when it worked, FANTASTIC!! Have to wait for an update to use it again. The file size is mad though.

@f64Academy

Жыл бұрын

Adobe is requiring more and more resources these days.

For me the multiple functions in Topaz Photo Ai outweigh Adobe’s way of doing things. In Topaz Photo Ai we get the controls over NR, Sharpening and possible upscaling, all in one process. On top of that Topaz proves with a masking option for the sharpening function as well. Since LR opens up the Denoise Ai in a new window and spits out a DNG file as a result it works like any other plugin implementation, the workflow is pretty identical to using any other plugin such as DXO PurRAW, Topaz Photo-DeNoise, etc.

Hi Blake. I tried new DeNoise on about 40 images from different Canon cameras as well as from DJI drones. On about 50% of the pictures, specially those taken in very low light or pictures from the drone, when you zoom in to 300-400% you see the pixels king of stretched to kind of lines. On the milky way shots it's not usable. I think the algorithm is not yet as good as everyone is saying. if you are zoomed in 200% it's more or lees ok. But once you look closer you see very strange behaviour on the pixels. Did you observe something similar? I see something very similar on your eagle picture. Thanks for the video.

It's definitely possible as its trying to fill in detail from the noise I believe that's the AI engine running. I'm not as concerned about it though unless its noticeable at 100-150%. I mean, if I print something, its VERY rare that someone is going to put their nose an inch away from it to simulate a 400% zoom, you know? I think people tend to look too deep into things instead of think about where and how it will be displayed. No one will zoom in that far on Instagram or Fb if viewing online and I really can't remember a time when someone got closer than a foot to one of my prints. If it's noticeable at 100% zoom, it might concern me, but other than that, I'm all good with it.
