>>4239380I have played around with their free trials. They seem okay. To me they seem best as a case-by-case work around. Rather than something I would rely on. Buying a new body is almost always going to be better than just using AI.
To me the hypothetical is kind of like
>why should I bother metering when I can just push my exposure in post?It's a hacky workaround, more than a real solution. If your needs has outgrown your camera, you should buy a new body rather than relying on another piece of software in the editing chain. But if you're really strapped for cash I could see why it'd be appealing.
To be honest though, I prefer the noisy image. The denoised one looks mushy and the softness of the high iso is masked/justified by the chroma noise, removing it just makes it look inexplicably bad.
