PS CS2 noise reduction for JPEGs is GARBAGE

wrote: 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? TR |

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. TR |
