PENDEEN

A moody scene from a blustery evening at Pendeen. In my latest Weekly Edit I use the Dehaze slider in Lightroom Classic to enhance the image… but perhaps not as you’d expect? Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/RM6mtsY4fVM?is=kXMYKrrVMZN9Ya6Q

Review: Darktable’s AI noise reduction versus Lightroom, ON1, Topaz

Darktable has been seen by many as the leading alternative to Adobe’s Lightroom Classic.

But for for those trying to get away from the company’s shakedown subscription plan, the lack of AI tools for masking and noise reduction have been dealbreakers.

Until now.

The latest release of Darktable now includes AI tools for masking and, most importantly, denoising. This is a significant development, but will it be enough for people looking for the exit ramp from the Adobe ecosystem?

Previous versions of Darktable had denoise options, but they usually softened the detail in the image as well.

I’ve put it to the test against some of the more popular programs — Lightroom Classic, ON1 NoNoise AI and Topaz Photo AI, and let’s see how it fares.

First, here is the test shot, straight out of camera. In the comparison photos, the only adjustments made have been noise reduction.

This was shot at ISO 12,800, which is the highest ISO I can shoot on my camera and still salvage the image in Lightroom’s denoising software.

And here is Darktable in a side-by side comparison with the original.

As you can see, the Darktable appears to have cleaned up much of the noise, with minimal damage to the details in the photo.

And let’s look at it in comparison with some of the other AI noise reducers on the market.

As you can see, Darktable’s results are not bad. It doesn’t quite compare with Lightroom or the other commercial editing software, but if you’re on a budget, the results are acceptable.

When it comes to masking, Darktable is not as good, as it caught sky in the branch I selected with the masking tool. But that is likely to be fixed in future releases.

Ursine love, part 2. I was in a melancholy mood when I saw these guys in their toy bin, and I thought of how pandas and polar bears are both threatened by climate change. So I took their photo and situated them in a Mordor-like hellscape where they could console and comfort each other, like Sam and Frodo at the end of all things.

Not my best work but I’m fond of it.😅
