PentaxForums.com is happy to announce an all-new giveaway featuring 5 free copies of ArcSoft's new Low Light NR software (an $80 value).

Attachment 155850

While we haven't reviewed Low Light NR in depth yet (we plan on doing so soon!), this software already looks like a very promising noise reduction tool, likely better than Topaz Labs' acclaimed DeNoise plugin. A key feature of Low Light NR is that it supports multiple-frame noise reduction, which means that if you use your camera's burst mode to shoot something at high ISO, the software will be able to use data from both photos in order to recover more detail than it would be able to using one file alone. More details about this can be found here. And this is an example of it in action:

Our goal with this giveaway is to help you out with your photography. If you end up being one of the winners of the software, then you'll be able to use it to effectively remove noise from your photos. If not, then at least you're going to walk away with critique from your peers on a photo of your choosing (details below).

In order to enter the giveaway, simply:


1. First:

• Upload your favorite photo to our Pentax Exclusive Gallery and get feedback/critique from our judges (be sure to include EXIF!)*
  
  --- or ---
• Register a camera or lens in the Pentax Serial Number Database to help us build pricing statistics (anonymous uploads are allowed if you have privacy concerns)
  If you choose to submit a serial instead of uploading a photo, include a link to the product you submitted a serial for in your post (see below).

2. Then post a reply in this thread containing the text "I would like to enter this giveaway." This will serve as confirmation of your entry. Copy-and-parse the text as it must match exactly.



That's it! In approximately three weeks, we will draw 5 usernames from the replies in this thread and ArcSoft will deliver your software via e-mail.

(...as soon as I stop screwing up the Gallery photo posting process!)

(I would have entered by putting my serial number in the database, but the whole process of mailing things to Antarctica is taking so long that I haven't actually received my new K-5 II yet - and I don't think my Optio W90 counts)

I'd say it would count!
