YarcPlus is designed to convert Canon RAW images into TIFFs and JPEGS. But in the process it can apply a special noise reduction technique that we developed called ARF (Artifact Removal Filter).
Many people have asked how ARF compares to Fred Miranda's well respected ISOR Pro seires of noise reduction actions for Photoshop.
Also many people have commented that ARF didn't seem to "do anything".
I have posted new pages at our site that hopefully explain and demonstrate (with example pictures) exatly what ARF does and how it compares to techniques such as Fred's ISOR Actions.
My examples are not designed to be definative, but to be informative, and to prompt futher testing and experimentation by others. It is our (biased) view that ARF should be thought of in the same light as Canon's FCF. A process that should always be used when converting from RAW.
I hope that you find the examples informative.
