Since DxO has fixed the issue with DeepPRIME XD, I would like to discuss an issue of the original DeepPRIME, which I call 'micro-noise' issue. Now I haven't done a thorough comparison of the output, just that DeNoise takes too long and fills up the hard drive. DxO introduced 'DeepPrime XD' noise reduction today, as a feature of PhotoLab 6 Elite. I might even consider it for processing events and leave out Lightroom altogether. I loaded up a trial of DxO and applied DeepPRIME to an image, it took 6 seconds to export to JPG and 8 seconds to export to DNG - it would be far quicker to use this software to export to DNG for processing in Lightroom.

I deliver most events start of day the following morning. I got it for when I need to do batch noise reduction on hundreds of event images.ĭeNoise creates a tif for each image, which results in a file 5 times larger than the original RAW, it then takes 45 seconds to run an 'auto' NR on the file.ģ00 files would take about 4 hours using DeNoise, which just doesn't fit in with my time scale for turning around edits.


(I'm also a day or two over my 30 day refund, doh!) I already bought DeNoise, which is a shame because when I actually tested it for what I needed - it did not perform well.
