Topaz Denoise AI comes in two modes – DeNoise AI and AI Clear. You can also choose exactly where you apply noise reduction in your image, so you can smooth out some areas while leaving the texture as is in others. You can also adjust the opacity of your changes and/or add layers to refine the detail if it’s necessary. The “reduce lens blur” adjustment is particularly amazing, especially when it comes to cleaning up noise in starry skies or images shot in low light. (One of the benefits to being software designed solely for reducing digital noise.)īeyond adjustments for both luminance and color noise, you can also manually control shadow tone restoration, de-banding, and color casts. It also has the most custom controls out of all the noise reduction software reviewed here. In terms of luminance noise reduction, it’s tied with Luminar. In terms of detail conservation, Topaz Denoise AI is currently the best program on this list. How? By feeding an algorithm millions of images until the software learned what noise actually is – both chroma and luminance – and how to remove it. While other noise reduction software tends to only look at pixel-level detail, the AI in Topaz Denoise actually “sees” the difference between detail and noise in your photos. Topaz Denoise AI uses artificial intelligence to analyze a photo and then uses this information to selectively reduce noise while enhancing the details that already exist in your image. Currently, the best noise reduction software on the market is Topaz Denoise AI.
