Continuing the search for help with noise removal, I've started looking at Topaz's AI Clear.
Currently this is $60 ish. And the 15% discount coupons can be found everywhere.
That's the bad news, because everything else is good.
I've been working with PS - the RAW filter and it's pretty good. I worked with On One's noise reduction and really wasn't that impressed. And then I stumbled on the AI Clear.
My quick test against PS.
AI Clear on the left, PS on the right. In the flat background, much smoother. Truth be told, I could get almost the same effect with PS, but unless I did some masking and layering I would have 'smoothed' the entire critter and lost some of the great detail. What doesn't show and what is really great about the product, the detail on the critter 'sharpens'. I guess that is the AI part, Artificial Intelligence. For this test with AIC, I used only the default settings.
Easy decision on this.
