I use them both, and choosing based on any one image is not the way to go. The choice of what's 'king' comes down to the camera, the lens, the subject, and the shooting conditions. ON1 NoNoise AI is not just respectable - it's sometimes better than DeepPRIME, and it's faster, and it offers more user control, and it works with non-RAW files.

Once you do not like the result you did, you have to go back and reedit denoising from scratch unlike ON1 where you just fine tweak. Obviously some work is necessary but in the final end - you can easily change the corresponding layer´s Denoising approach later - it is non destructive and re-editable. Then just switch the mask of this layer (upper one) to black (hiding everything - so you see only the bottom one) and paint a brush mask over the "top-layer-mask" to reveal the different AI approach of top layer (no need to be precise). leaving here some noise and adding detail enhancement). totally denoise and cancel sharpening on the bottom one, then switch to the next above and create different AiDenoising approach on this one (e.g. Just go to layers and make two or three copies of the one (unprocessed) you see. I assume you use ON1 PhotoRaw - that is assumption. If I understand properly (not sure) then you can process different parts of image quite easily and most of all - non-destructively. It seems I only use part of the program by just denoising the whole image with trials of different models and strengths of denoise.
#DXO PHOTOLAB 2 ELITE SHORTCUT HOW TO#
I would love to learn how to control different parts of DeNoise AI. Working with your file I tried to get rid of sometimes nervous noise pattern on the wall, soften bit mushy OOF parts, pick-up more details from white section of the fur and added some micro-contrast (superfine sharpening). In some tricky situations it has just more controls over the process. Agree with Erik - I will probably use TOPAZ instead of ON1 NoNoise AI. IMHO it is good - everything can be probably better, but that is highly individual. Here's how I would handle this one with Topaz DeNoise and a small WB adjustment in the mix. I like that it has lots of fine tuning options and isn't nearly as slow as the others. I have other Topaz apps as well, but find DeNoise more than adequate for both noise reduction and sharpening when needed. I have no plans to argue which one is better, just hope to get the better result of image retouching with strengths of different programs I also have Topaz DeNoise/Sharpen/GigaPixel, but found that I need to run them one-by-one in order to get great result, while On1 Photo RAW is quite well-integrated, and includes AI Auto tunings on color/wb etc.

May I know the reason DeNoise AI is better? Is it because we can choose models and strength of DeNoise? I would normally use Topaz DeNoise here for a little cleanup and sharpening, but this looks good with just a couple minutes in plain old Lightroom too. It looks fine to me, not especially noisy to begin, though.
