Thanks for the tip, Michael. Can’t believe it does such a good job that you actually mask back in some of the original noise…very cool.

This may end up being obvious to you if you buy Noiseware, but I’ll mention that it does such a good job with noise that I occasionally mask some non-noise-reduced areas back in via photoshop to keep some texture or maximize sharpness. Depends what look I want in each part of the image.

Thanks for the feedback and the Noiseware recommendation! I think that’ll be the next piece of software I pick up for sure.

I don’t find Lightroom’s noise reduction worth much at all. I bit the bullet and got Noiseware and I find it to do an amazing job…worth every penny (I used Trey Ratcliff’s discount code). Other software packages might be great too but I didn’t try any others.

There you go.. Theres a portable copy of Noiseware… That’s a dope picture but its pretty busy in the noise department… Sick though….
