So I don’t (yet?) use either of these two products. But I find myself confused with the release of DeNoise as it is another program that has a denoise slider. I think Topaz has some brilliant ideas and programs for photographers. But when it confuses/frustrates your customers, the answer is yes. Is there anything wrong with that? Not really. So what the heck does Topaz do? Create another denoise program? And how/why/when is that program supposed to be better than AI Clear? And how is that denoising better/different/worse than the denoise sliders in all the other Topaz programs? I was once told that AI Clear “is the best Topaz noise reduction software”. Topaz products are very confusing in what they do best and when best to use them. That’s compounded when the products seem to all have the same/similar features to varying degrees, and when they are not cheap (a relative term)…meaning a person wants to be extra sure they buying the product they need.Īnd that’s further compounded when there are about a 10000 (and counting) workflows that may or may not be better than another workflow, and even more compounded when each one of those workflows takes many minutes to complete (due to the time it takes to process the images). If there is one thing that makes a person hesitant to buy a product, it’s when there are TOO MANY choices…this is a fact…it kinda paralyzes people. First of all I am a fan of the AI programs…I want to buy them and use them…but…they are quite confusing to use (as in, which one(s) is BEST to use and in what order)…they take LONG TIME to use (but they are remarkable in what they accomplish)…and they all cost a not insignificant amount of money.
