jaapv Posted March 7, 2023 Share #21 Posted March 7, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I like it very much in my regular editing workflow as a general cleanup before proceeding. It prevents enhancing general minor imperfections. I think it is less successful for “one tool does all”. (Yet?) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoolyproductions Posted March 7, 2023 Share #26 Posted March 7, 2023 I upgraded to Topaz AI last weekend. I've been an occasional user of Noise, Gigapixel and Sharpen AI and liked the idea of a 'one stop shop'. I noticed I can now also work with RAW files - if that was previously possible with the 'individual' versions I had not noticed and have been working with TIFF as a last step in my workflow I did get some pretty nice results experimenting yesterday with an unsharp landscape picture (it worked wonders) and some high ISO/long-ish shutter speed music shots, also nice results. Since "Enhance" came out in Lightroom I will need Topaz a bit less (I haven't used Gigapixel since then), but I can still see me using it for low light and motion blur. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris W Posted March 9, 2023 Share #30 Posted March 9, 2023 This is dust on 1990's film negs, scanned. I've tried every manual cleaning method to no avail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris W Posted March 9, 2023 Share #31 Posted March 9, 2023 So far no software is helping either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your scanner have ICE? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris W Posted March 10, 2023 Share #33 Posted March 10, 2023 They are B&W and I'm using Vuescan, not the scanners own software. A friend managed to demo me some dust cleaning in Photoshop. I tried Luminar Neo and it made no impact on the dust at all (weird). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with your scanning and cleaning. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found a judicious use of the Lasersoft Imaging SRDx plug-in for Photoshop is a big time-saver for dustbusting. Put the optimal plug-in output on a new layer with a matte and then you can quickly brush back in details that have been lost in the dust and scratch removal process. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris W Posted March 11, 2023 Share #37 Posted March 11, 2023 Thanks. I'll take a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
