hey guys welcome back thanks so much for joining me today today we're going to
look at a tool that is just blowing my mind right now
we're gonna do a super quick review we're gonna use this picture here and
this picture here
so we're not gonna edit them to look like they too on my
Instagram feed for which the link is in the bio below but what we are gonna do is we're
going to assess the situation in terms of noise because this is nyon unusable
that's horrific if you can't see the level of noise please do try and watch
this in 4k or at least 1080p if your device can only go that high these
pictures were shot again I'm having real issues getting my monitor brightness
right and obviously I screwed up massively in this situation I've had to
overexpose this image by two stops I have overexposed this image by one
stop and what I did was I actually downloaded a trial of this software and
I plugged it into Lightroom so I can right click Edit in and open the tool
which is topaz denoise ai I've seen the adverts for this and I thought it was a
load of crap if I'm being honest with you but yeah let's withhold judgement so
what it does is it creates a virtual copy then that opens the raw file up now
as you can see I've split the screen it so that we can see things nothing is
happening at the moment because I haven't applied anything but what I'm
gonna do is go ahead and click on auto detect settings now I'm gonna start with
this one I think and show you guys just how phenomenal this insane software is
let me show you this is before look can you see that oh wow
oh wow let's go up here look at it look at that oh my god I mean
I honestly I'm so blown away by this software I'm just completely completely
blown away by it I mean let me go on to the worst one and then you'll see how it
handles such horrific levels of grain look at that
mind-blowing absolutely mind-blowing I'm gonna zoom in a little bit more if there
was ever a tool to save work I mean I know this one is this one's like let's
just put on Instagram and that's all that it will ever see but if there was
ever a tool that existed to save work this is it so yeah how much is this
witchcraft gonna set you back well let's go and have a look so it is $59.99 there
is a 30-day trial it's on offer for the next few days check that before you go
ahead and buy it and one thing that I did double check is you know do we
have to pay that every year is it an annual thingamajiggy or is it not and
for those questions I then went ahead and looked at the actual pricing pages
so on the pricing page you've got the cost of everything so the tool that
we've just used is this DeNoise AI and then the upgrade license gives you a year of
additional upgrades and for those it is $49.99
I have heard really good things about sharpen and gigapixel as well so that's
probably worth looking at too if you like this kind of thing what I would say
is don't use it on everything only use it when you absolutely have to and once
you've used it do inspect the image at least 100 percent zoom if it destroys it
it's not worth using make sure that you play around and learn how to use it so
this picture is the one that we have just worked on it
just had it's DeNoise done and then after the edit that I did on this picture it
ended up looking like this the noise the division between the sharp
areas and the bokeh areas is absolutely fine there are no areas of noise
infringement still on there it is a super clean image we've even gone into
some of the shadow areas below like I said I've not overly processed it in
terms of the noise front but I am really really happy with how that is looking I
would give this tool a solid 10 out of 10 because it saved my life in terms of
these pictures I will obviously sort out my screen monitor brightness in the live
view display on my camera but this is something that you can always lean on if
you've come away from a shoot and you just think holy crap what on earth am I gonna
do here yeah you can open up your low-light shooting potential and life
