Scott - As always, Great stuff!
Very interesting I have the the topaz editing software, using it on low light pictures it's very good, I process first with Affinity software then with De noise ,thanks for the video and demo.
Thank you for the very informative and helpful information. I represent fine art artists, create my own digitally created images and make large fine art prints from all sources I mentioned of my and their works. I am beginning to work with someone who is a wildlife photographer whom I feel has great potential. I suggested he come to your site. I know your efforts will prove extremely helpful and valuable for him to know and I am going to suggest he join your Patreon.
Thank you so much!
I find Clear is nice when ISO is at a reasonable level.
I've had better luck with the Severe Noise option at ISO 12800 - makes the image a bit soft but far better than some of the alternatives
...been able to make something out of nothing with Topaz.
Its a solid product. I use low light more now than before also.
Interesting that you used opacity to control the blending of the two sharpen methods in the Harrier image. I typically use layer masks and choose the areas where I want a particular method to apply.
I also selectively mask in sharpening if an image requires it, but I wanted to avoid the selective masking for this video Basically I just wanted to show the benefit for me of using layers with the topaz products. I found a lot of people doing the denoise straight away and making the adjustments more permanent from the start.
@@WildlifeInspired After watching the video it was also clear that even with masking you could not used different Denoise techniques at the same time. Your video demonstrated how you could do this with multiple layers though.. That was an important thing for me. I do wish that like the Nik products I am moving away from that Topaz would automatically create a new photoshop layer when invoked and name it like topaz does when invoked on a file outside of photoshop. This one video was enough for me to sign onto your Patreon channel.
In the initial process of the raw file in denoise, you showed processing as raw and exporting the TIFF file. Is there a reason that you did not export as a DNG rather than a TIFF?
honestly no reason.... Though I don't think there should be a difference in quality export. I will experiment though. I stopped using the raw file filter, so I cant say I have any more experience with it.
@@WildlifeInspired I have used the raw filter a couple of times, but was not very impressed with it. The other filters seem to do a better job for me. If you do the drag to DeNoise as you demonstrated early in the video, you can then export the file from DeNoise as a DNG - that means that the camera profiles etc are still available to you in the editing program.
Also, I have recently started to use DXO Pure Raw to clean up the images. You can drag the files to the program and export export them as a DNG file. If you do it from LightRoom for example, they will come back to lightroom as a DNG file and whatever corrections you have made in lightroom will be applied from the sidecar file to the imported DNG. I have found that the DNG files from DXO Pure Raw are about 30% smaller than the files from Topaz DeNoise. I still use Topaz for some images or may apply it to some images that have gone through DXO. I have found that setting the preferences in Topaz to use the graphics card speeds the process. I recently purchased a MacBook Pro (M1) and specifying that really speeds the process.
Thank you for your program, the educational experiences that you have given us and for the guest segments that you have. I really appreciate your work.
Ive heard DXO has really improved Maybe I will try to get my hands on a copy and compare the two
I stopped the vid after " Not divulging info" unless you pay.
then you are missing out on a lot of free content that I offer. best of luck
@@WildlifeInspired free content that is easily available elseware. You and everyone else make money false advertising... give just enough to get hooked but keep the important stuff to yourself.
sorry bro your video is all over the place. steps and explanation is not clear when it seems like you are just rambling. It might makes sense to you but not to others.
never heard that before thanks
Very Uninformative!!!. Spent most of the time messing in PhotoShop and noise display plugin. Did not even run Topaz Sharpen AI
Don't waste your time!!
the point of this was to show how to use layers as part of the Topaz process. I have other videos on Sharpen and Denoise. Feel free to check them out. Was trying to keep this shorter and not be redundant.
