I tried lightroom today
It's an awful program in every other way but it really highlights how bad capture one's noise reduction is. I have no idea why capture one is SO FUCKING BAD at color noise reduction. Maxing out the slider doesn't even get rid of all of it, and it mysteriously comes back on export sometimes. It's a good thing I don't really keep high ISO photos as anything but cute dog snapshits and basically just do snapshits and portraits of my friends, but if I were feeling greedy for cash and shooting a wedding with an indoor/nighttime dance or ceremony that didn't allow flash, c1 would be unusable without a companion denoising program.
Which do you prefer, faded sandpaper, or smear with color blotches?
Interesting note: Adobe requires you to install spyware and C1 does not.
