Noise reduction, clarity and sharpness of Vs masking

Maybe I used too much clarity for the birds and noise reduction. Some recommend on dpReview, no noise reduction and now I tend to believe them. Recently, I tried using little to no noise reduction, little or no clarity, a lot of sharpness and about 40% of masking. This gives the details of good bird feather, and anything with less detail has little better bokeh and noise. In areas of low detail it seems to me that the masking reduced the noise caused by the sharpening, but it has less effect on the noise increased clarity. Is this true? If this is the case, birds, photography is better clarity used sparingly and selectively, as on the head?

Another reason for all of this, is that once I read even a little masking degrades the sharpness but now I doubt that. Maybe LR which has improved over the years.

Thank you

Doug

Reducing noise from luminance indeed (and the extended color noise reduction) tends to erase fine feather detail.

I recommend:

* lowered the noise reduction and if you are not using it, how the cursor nr.detail up crank - this will help maintain fine feather detail and is superior to sharpen detail to maintain details otherwise lost pen due to the reduction of noise.

* a lowered sharpening in detail, to reduce noise and reduce the "need" to reduce the noise.

* and sharpen masking to taste...

Also note: exactly 50 masks all global sharpening sharpening room and can therefore be used in conjunction with noise reduction to smooth bokeh areas.

And of course you can add sharpening or clarity locally too.

I know that I have not responded to your question perfectly as asked, but I don't know what to say, then...

Have fun

  • Missing pallets of sharpness and noise reduction

    I just exported some pictures for the web of Lightroom 5, which had to be reduced considerably.

  • Cc of Lightroom export no noise reduction and sharpening changes

    I have recently updated to Lightroom from 5.7 to CC, but can not get the noise reduction and sharpening of changes to export. The files are imported from a D7200 of Nikon NEF files. After you change the image, I can see the changes in library modules and put at the point, but not in the exported jpg file. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for posting the requested screen captures and ISO setting. You see more noise in the exported JPEG image file in the library and develop modules because you have output applied sharpening (sharpen: high screen). This is the case additional sharpening not present in the library modules and develop. ERGO: They will be different. Output sharpening should be used when reducing the size of the image with "Resize to Fit" checked. Each time an image is resized it loses the edge sharpness and output sharpening restores the details of contours in the small size file.

    Follow the instructions in deepakgahlot provided in response #1 and ensure that the export module output sharpening > sharpening for: is not checked. If you still have questions please download one of the files on Dropbox image or other file sharing site and post the sharing link.

  • When I edit a .wav file (noise reduction to remove the background hiss) and save them, the changes are not saved.

    I just installed hearing and have edited a few audio voiceover to remove the background hiss.  When I save the changes and reopen the file, the hiss is back.  The changes are not saved.  Why is this happening?  How to record the sound of the effects of reduction in my .wav file?

    I capture the background hissing noise footprint > click apply > click on select, then click on apply again.

    These steps are not quite correct. You have two choices; either highlight a part of the background noise and use SHIFT + P, which captures your selection as a basis for NR or, open the Panel NR and use "Capture noise Print" from there, after making a selection first. After doing this, click on "select an entire file. What you definitely have to do is to use 'apply' at this point, and when use you it, just use it once.

    When you capture using printed, the Preview 'play' button inside the plugin to check the settings and then stop it. When you are satisfied of what he done, then click on 'Apply' - but once. This will apply for all of your noise reduction. As long as you do not use "undo" at any time, the version Number will be be recorded on the original, or if you use "save under", then the original will be left alone, and a new noise-reduced version will be saved.

  • Asks the plugin noise reduction effect-made clip jerky and slow down after application?

    I apply an effect - the neat video Plugin to reduce noise. for some reason when I apply the effect, playback of the clip is really slow and jerky. Why is this?

    Hi Dragonsfire,

    I'm looking at the rendering time and it's extremely slow, like the clip is 30 secs long 2mins but render time estimate is like 3 hours! My laptop is not the fastest, but it is not no more ancient. Any suggestions on the reduction to make time-no understood them with a much more powerful computer!

    You have met one of the intensive more rendered effects on the stage of post-production. Sorry if you think that something goes wrong. Likely, that's fine, except that it takes very long time to process images with that plugin.

    Here are some tips on the neat video forum:

    The real rendering for your clip speed should be around approximately 2 images per second. This value seems normal for a HD (1920 x 1080) image size and material to the average (you don't mention your hardware specifications). You can speed up a bit by disabling some of these filter options:

    • disable the very low freq, high quality options
    • some of the fixed noise reduction in some or all channels amounts (luminance / chrominance or Y/Cr/Cb) and/or ranges of frequency at 0%
    • reduction of the time filter RADIUS
    • disable the option of adaptive filtering

    These measures allow the filter a little faster, but at the expense of the quality of filtration reduced. Noise reduction is usually a compromise between quality and processing speed. When you need good quality, it makes sense to give some time to the process with the top of the settings page. When that is not necessary, you can use a less accurate and more rapid filtration.

    Thank you

  • The noise reduction works only on MAC Lightroom 5.4

    I knew that the noise reduction that I apply to my photos is visible in the area of software development. I'm going to the library he disappears and the same thing happen if I export the image in any format.

    I post a screenshot where you can see an example of image with the desired noise reduction applied (right) and the same pictures, as he shows in the field of the library (left). Switching between the two areas (library and develop) results as a toggle of noise reduction.

    Is there a way to fix this bug?


    Thank you.

    View generally develop - Fit is more crisp than the library or export, when there was enough noise reduction added to an image to give the impression of sweetness, and people complain that sharpening is not applied; However, in this situation through extreme noise reduction settings, an artificial coarse replaced fine-grained noise that seems to manifest itself differently according to develop Fit, and the complaint is that the library has no NR applied.

    More in detail, there are two questions here, both to the user, LR:

    (1) a user-hope that the No 1:1 to the point zoom is specific about the detailed settings.  It is not the case.  Years, there has been a warning of exclamation point on the detail settings section that says see things only to 1:1.  If a user doesn't see or ignores this warning and then their expectation wrong, as in this situation.

    (2) the detail of Luminance Noise reduction slider has been increased from the default value of 50 up to 100.  This has the effect of converting the sound of grain in an angular course texture, which is easily visible in reduced size except in the view to develop was inaccurate.

    In the next-by-side to zoom 1:1, the left panel is according to the user settings with the Lum-NR-Detail slider to 100, while the right has the cursor Lum-NR-detail set at the default value of 50, with all other parameters of the user remains the same:

    I would summarize what happens not as a bug but a different response from the develop-adjustment incorrect attended a different coarseness of the noise which is caused by an extreme environment of the Lum-NR-detail slider.  Since there is no resizing and not sharpness in export settings, I don't think that 1/3 bug has nothing to do with anything.

    It would be nice for the original poster (OP) to describe exactly what is wrong, after knowing the view to develop it is accurate if not seen at the 1:1.

  • noise reduction shows do not develop the module

    I noticed today that when I noise reduction in the develop module, the changes are not be represented on the image, I work with, except in the top left hand corner... too small for me to see clearly.  But when I go to the library module, the changes actually took place.  If anyone has experienced this?  I need a fix because it's a bad guessing game my slider without seeing results until I have the switch modules.  Have not had this problem before. A lot of my work turns out too smooth!  I appreciate any help I can get with that.

    Thank you very much, Lee.  So, there is no problem with the software?  For clarity, in this case then, Lightroom is holding useless NR, but this change, discuss that with me visually?  Do you know if I can mount it too?

    No dysfunction, no override.  There has been a lot of discussion on this and it is possible in a future version that will add a preference or other corrective action can be taken, but for the moment, just use library or more large image sizes.  In reality, it is always better to judge sharpening and noise reduction to 1:1.

    IM on an Apple running 10.11.6 and hearing CC 2015.2
    recently, I have to obtain the reduction of noise at work at all without success. I work as usual by selecting an impression of noise, and then opening the noise reduction and I immediately get a massive pop. If I stop the preview and start it again I get the same thing. There is no preview adjustments either. any parameter there is no change in the preview. If I try and select noise only it isn't even a change.

    If I apply the settings there isn't even a change even with more stringent parameters.

    I have no idea what is going on here and I really want to use the tool.

    Thanks for any help. !

    Well I took a risk and just blew the whole directory to ~ / Library/Preferences/Adobe/Audition/9.0.
    Not sure what was bad or something has been altered after the last update, but this fixed the problem.

  • Issue of noise reduction

    Hi all

    I have a picture shot at 3200 ISO and have reduced the noise considerably in camera raw. Satisfied with the results here. However, when you open the it in PS CC, the noise is back as if I have nothing in ACR. PS noise reduction filter will not come even close to the results obtained in ACR.

    Am I missing something?

    Also tried to save it as .tif and .jpg same in ACR, but same result when opening these files in PS.

    Thank you

    In ACR, have you checked the NR to 100% zoom?   If this isn't the case, it is possible that noise is still there and some algorithm used by CAB to resample an image to the screen, is artificially noise suppression, which is not really gone, and PS shows the noise remains.

  • The noise reduction does not work in Lightroom CC

    I have Lightroom CC with the most recent version installed as of May 17, 2016.  For some reason, the noise reduction slider doesn't do anything on any image.  Even at 100%, I can tell zero difference in the image.  Y at - it a bug that happens here or I do something wrong?  I use the same camera and image settings I have for more than 2 years.  Nothing has changed that I know.  Any ideas?

    Hi jeffb,.

    I tried the same thing at my end and I can change the Luminance, detail, and contrast of the image. I use WIndows 10

    Please check the picture you're working on doesn't fail, you can also try resetting that default return Lightroom preferences.

    Press the shift + option keys immediately after you restart Lightroom and select Preferences reset in the dialog box.

  • no noise reduction after using the Brush tool or radial filter export!

    This seems to be an old bug! Any solution to this problem?

    Kind regards

    Stefan

    I see no difference between the opinion of develop and the JPG exported if sharpening and resizing are DISABLED and quality = 100.  A non-haute quality of might change the texture of the output so that it is what is different for you?  Perhaps you could show us a screenshot of your panel of the export settings.

    Despite what has been said, there is no any Radial filters with zero NR.  With Todd of suggestion, I found that there are FIVE overlapping brushes adjustment, each with 100 = noise reduction.  I had to drag out to see how they were.  Unfortunately, it seems little matter how many brushes you add with NR = 100 the effect is the same, so they are not additive:

    In my opinion, the problem you are having with the sky is that your main overall Luminance settings are not optimal.  The amount of Luminance is only 4, but the details of the Luminance set to 100, which causes a look crumpled in areas initially fine grain and this will not be smooth with an extra brush NR.

    My suggestion would be to a higher overall amount of Lum, May 20 and one low light detail much more, maybe even zero.

    I love these parameters:

    I put the NR = 0 for FOUR brushes five adjustment by disabling them efficiently and only adjusted the NR of those remaining at the original location, so these additional brushes could be removed:

    I think that the general issue that you are experiencing, it is that you want to adjust your NR without using 100% or zoom 1:1, then things look much more flexible on reduced zoom who they really are.

  • Noise reduction preset

    Is it possible to make the built-in noise reduction, so I can apply my settings to other files? I'm editing of the interviews and trying to get the hiss of background even in some clips.

    Yes, you can store your sample of noise as an .flt file and reuse it. The top where it says "Capture noise Print" NR, you will find two icons to the right of it, allowing you to store and recall them.

    Also good at the top of the Panel is the predefined store and you can do a similar thing with all parameters - store and call back them.

  • I can't find anything in the manual that explains how the instant noise print settings in the noise reduction effect.

    I am a Pr/Ae user, not an expert in hearing.  I face an excerpt of interview with excessive noise HVAC air movement. I watched the tutorials and read the manual, I see nothing about this setting - noise Print Snapshots. (in the noise reduction) What is the difference in the output of different numbers and why?

    I'm also surprised to see if I'm doing the same NR twice on a clip (done by chance) really works better, without much in the way of artifacts.

    I'm trying to reduce the number of variables I have try different combinations.

    Thank you.

    Regarding the size of snapshot FFT - well, it is not easy to explain without going in the works of the FFT, and is not exactly notions... the best explanation of what the differences are is probably this one:

    Techniques of the noise reduction for Adobe Audition CC

    What it does not say on this page, that's what we discovered collectively using NR - and is that the best way to apply it is indeed in the stadiums-, but with a different size of the FFT for each one and not too wide in a go. You will get inevitably less artifacts of higher values, but they do not so well on the lower frequencies, so to a certain extent, it must analyze your noise; with CVC, you won't need the lowest setting, unless there are a lot of very low frequency "rumble" in the sound, and it is fairly consistent.
