Topaz DeNoise Review

The best noise reduction software out there! · Posted on 02-21-2012 in Reviews

We're happy to present our first in-depth review of the month: Topaz DeNoise!  If you were impressed by Topaz Adjust when we reviewed it last year, then this plug-in will simply blow you away. 

This $80 investment allows you to salvage noisy high-ISO JPEGs and RAW files alike and get the most our of the high-iso capabilities of cameras such as the K-5.  See the review for more details and some example photos!

Good review.
I find that the images are just ever so slightly not as crisp. But,that may just be a false perception, as the noise on the edge of things make them seem/look sharper. Might just be my brain/eyes. In any event, I own it and feel it works better than other noise reduction programs.

Yes it's better most of the times but also slower.
(lr3 & lr4 question)

Wow those are pretty good results.
I would certainly look seriously at it if I was not Linux user (or even if there had been a standalone version that I could run on a VM).

Much better. The first "before" example image has already had Photoshop CSS 5's "smart" noise reduction applied, and it was the best we could do without Topaz.

Is it better than LR3 or even the LR4 Beta in Noise Reduction?
