Default PS CS2 noise reduction for JPEGs is GARBAGE

Worthless. Use any other programs, even Paint Shop Pros. I fail to
understand why the RAW NR is acceptable while the JPEG is near
useless. It basically smears detail like a touch-up brush on
steroids.



I've found the Noise Reduction Filter in CS2 does a pretty good job.
There are better tools out there. If you need more or you frequently
work with images that need NR, take a look at Noise Ninja and Neat
Image.


In the mean time, can you give us sample image and the Noise Reduction
Filter settings you used?

No, he can't! He just seems to like posting for the sake of seeing
replies. I am now going to sit in the corner as I've replied twice.

oh the shame

I 'm sure he can ... I'm pretty sure there will be numerous Pigasus
sightings before he will.

I'm a little curious as to why he's blathering on about CS2 and its
supposed inadequacies. Since February the shots he recently posted to
pbase were processed with CS3.
