Topaz photo ai11/12/2023 ![]() I also adjusted sliders for sharpness, noise reduction, and so on, but I tried to do it quickly rather than ultra-precisely. When processing photos for this post and in everyday use, I didn’t try to achieve the best possible results, such as recovering maximum sharpness in a selected area and then masking over-sharpened elements “I assumed that such a program should give relatively good results quickly, and if I wanted to manually tweak and extract the maximum potential, I would use separate plugins like DeNoise AI, Sharpen AI, and Gigapixel AI. Surely with future updates, I will change some options, although there are very few of them. I also enabled sharpening on slightly blurred photos. Personally, I prefer to have the face detection option unchecked and only enable it when an important subject is out of focus. Lens correction is also being done, which can be turned off in the settings. I find DXO PL6 better at RAW processing.Photo AI has only a few options and so-called The autopilot sets the photos up for the user at the beginning and can be manually adjusted if necessary to improve them. I bought the Topaz suite for processing scanned film and old JPEGs and find Denoise AI lacking for that purpose while I'm quite happy with the results I get processing JPEGs with Photo AI and it's the reason I bought it. I understand but Denoise AI by itself is not good at RAW because it needs further processing. In Photo AI there's a strength slider that goes from no noise reduction when set to zero to a lot when set to the maximum with a nearly infinite range in between. The same thing is possible with Photo AI. This is especially problematic when it gets it wrong which it often does unfortunately.ĭenoise AI does a better job with not getting it wrong and also more flexibility to reduce noise reduction when needed. If you try this in Photo AI you cannot get close, you always get noise reduction that cant be removed or reduced further. In Denoise AI if you choose "standard" and turn both noise and edge sharpness to 0 and the recover detail to 100 and export the file it almost shows the original image. Unfortunately denoise AI and Photo AI are not the same, they do not perform the same and you cant reduce the noise reduction enough in Photo AI. Here's the best compromise result I could get from Denoise stand-alone. Because of this, it seems to me that Photo AI is a way to combine all 3 along with the facial AI under one app. You can get the same results as Denoise by turning off everything but noise reduction. Each effect can be adjusted or turned off and on as needed with, for me at least, the results being identical. I downloaded the whole suite and from my experience Photo AI seems to be using Denoise, Gigapixel, and Sharpen all under the same interface. Not if you turn off everything but Denoise and adjust the noise reduction sliders to taste. The behaviour you show above is typical of Photo AI and does the same on landscapes and things and smoothes away a tree or bush etc. I've tried Photo AI lots of times now compared to Denoise AI and i prefer denoise AI as it retains more details when you turn down the sliders. Sometimes it's best to turn off facial when it does things like this. ![]() It was left exactly as in the original with no change. I dont want smooth photos i want natural looking photos retaining the detail even at the expense of leaving some noise.Ĭorrect but the hair wasn't smoothed away. It tends to obliterate the noise and the detail on a tree trunk for example. ![]() My main issue with Photo AI is that you cant reduce the noise reduction effect enough. The top of the ladies hair has been smoothed away. Your samples are good and i can see the issue with this one.

I've been experimenting with Topaz Photo AI for a few days and find it's very good at cleaning up old noisy JPEGs and scanned slides and negatives. ![]()
