![]() ![]() So much better! I did have to crank up the Denoise Amount to 70 to get rid of most of the hot pixels. If you’re not a subscriber to my YouTube channel, please consider subscribing.200% view with manual noise reduction on the left, new Denoise (Amount 70) on the right If you want to watch this functionality in action, I created a YouTube video for it below. Perhaps this is another reason to shoot RAW+JPEG in camera and then you can choose which file you need when you get home. ![]() jpeg only shooter, I’m sorry but this won’t be available to you. Now, not sure if you caught this above, but Lightroom Denoise only works on RAW files. It is very self explanatory which one has the noise reduction applied. As an example, my RAW file with the noise reduction applied now has a file name of _DSF0247-Enhanced-NR.dng. When it creates this copy, it also appends the file name of the copy. dng file on top of the RAW file which helps in keeping everything organized. With Create Stack selected, it will stack the. In Lightroom Denoise, when it run, it will create a duplicate copy of the base image with the noise reduction applied. Secondly, there is a selection box for you to choose whether to “Create Stack”. Most images have been running between 10-15 seconds. So far I haven’t exceeded 20 seconds! When I compare that time with the time it would take to open up my plug in, choose which NR model, then execute it, trust me it will take longer than 20 seconds. This is largely dependent on how big your file is, and, how powerful your computer is. The other cool things in this panel are that it shows you the estimated time it will take to complete running the noise reduction step. You may prefer a bit more or less, it’s best to experiment with this on your own images.

When the panel opens, you will see a preview of the image with noise reduction applied. This is something you may be familiar with if you have ever used the Super Resolution function in Lightroom. ![]() When you click the Denoise Button, the Enhance Panel appears. It is using intelligence to examine the photograph and identify all of the suspected noise in the image. This new Lightroom Denoise functionality is largely automatic. The old denoise features are still available under the “manual noise reduction” option. Scroll down to the Details panel and open it up and you should see the new Lightroom Denoise button. Once you update Lightroom, open it up and go to the Develop Module. The update is for both Windows and Mac and so far I haven’t heard of any issues with this installing automatically and running just as it should. It is a relatively small update and will download quickly. Check your Creative Cloud dashboard and choose to update your software. Lightroom Denoise is available in version 12.3 and ACR 15.2. But I gotta say, this latest release makes it even more attractive to stay in Lightroom for many of my edits, it’s getting that good. For many years I’ve not done the bulk of my editing in Lightroom, it was mainly a catalog tool and maybe a few global edits before I jumped in to Photoshop. I’m excited to write you to about the new Lightroom Denoise functionality that was just released this week in both Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw. ![]()
