Yup, easy to clean up those

Hey, just trying to be encouraging

And, much appreciated.

Do you have any issues with Topaz skewing the color tone? I seem to have issues with blues and greens not coming through as the original; e.g. grass, sky and water. Have to adjust the color tone in PS.

Okay ... here's one at ISO 1250 that cleaned up reasonably well. Mourning Dove

Not that I’ve seen; make sure when you export from LR to Denoise, you select TIFF and 300 dpi.

Thanks, that may be the problem. I've been exporting another DNG. Have to convert the CR3's from the 90D to DNG because Topaz doesn't speak CR3 (yet?). Then processing, exporting as another DNG, then bringing them into PS. I'll give this a whirl, but the images look "off color" when I first bring them in. I've been running Topaz first, then PS or LR. They may look "truer" if I bring them in as a TIFF.

I have DeNoise as an external editor, so just right click > edit in Topaz, and it creates a new TIFF. So far I haven’t seen any artifacting in blue skies or anything doing it this way, but let’s say you tried to work a jpeg, I can see the tonal gradations getting chunky due to the lossy file format.

Very nice!

Neighbour's kitty? Where the heck did you see this beauty and how did you get it to stay still? Great shot!

northern california is known to be a pretty good spot for seeing bobcats...sometimes they stay and hang out for a while...lots of times they just turn and run as soon as you drive up....this one sat for me...the light rain may have helped

Beautiful, moody shot, with great subject isolation, Andre.

100% recommend Topaz DeNoise AI, it single handily got rid of my fear of shooting at higher ISOs. Throughout my photography career/experience, there's only been a handful of times where something has played a pivotal role in revolutionizing my workflow or improving my final shots: Topaz DeNoise is one of those.

Don't listen to the EXIF here this was shot on the 90D w/ my 600 f/4 III, and the ISO is actually 10,000. Forgot to add: this photo was processed w/ Topaz DeNoise AI. Lightroom was making a huge mess of things, and DN-AI rescued the shot.

I've heard much about Topaz DeNoise, all of it good. The trouble is, for me my PP is very weak, I can't even use layers in my work flow, I mean, I understand the principles of them, but using them has always left me frustrated ( especially as everyone seems to find them so easy ). At what stage of PP do you use DN

I'm similar. I use Lightroom and don't use Photoshop, so have no knowledge of layers. As for 3rd party noise removal software, I would be interested in seeing a comparison of what LR can do by itself and a plugin like Topaz. I confess I am a doubter.

In LR, generally we say to use denoise last. But it doesn't matter - LR looks after the sequence when you export a JPG.

Hi... I process my RAW in DPP and then export an 8 bit EXIF-TIFF to photoshop, where I do minimal.. I have Topaz DeNoise as a plugin to my PS. I don't always use it because I find that it over sharpens things (even when I tell it not to sharpen) It is usually the last thing I do in the process
