Today’s lucky spotting of a Goldcrest gives me a chance to show off the pluses and minuses of Topaz AI, which I was talking about a few days ago.
We hopefully have here, from the same RAW file
- One with Canon Digital Photo Professional 4’s default efforts at de-noise and sharpening
- One with no post-processing
- One with Topaz AI’s efforts
Topaz gives by far the prettiest results, but I do wonder if its extrapolating from other sources, and notice how the left leg has disappeared entirely.
On other shots today, Canon’s DPP4 was proving better at post-processing a well lit Red Kite.
So, as before, Topaz AI is interesting, can do great things, but you need to keep an eye on it.
Canon R6 + RF600mm F11 lens, Reading, UK. 1/1000s. ISO25600, so the noise is absolutely no surprise!
