Capture One has released a new beta version of the software, that adds a much requested feature. The new release adds AI noise reduction to the photo editing application, and while currently only in Beta, it looks promising.

Adobe’s latest Lightroom Classic update makes AI tools like Denoise and Super Resolution far less disruptive by moving their processing into the background, so they no longer take over the app, which is especially helpful when working through large batches. The update also includes a handful of performance improvements, better assisted culling detection, PSB sync support, and other smaller additions.

The recent release of Lightroom Classic 14.4 brought with it a major change to how denoise, raw details and super resolution work, and with that, some confusion. One of the most recurring questions I received since publishing a video on the new version last week was “how do you batch process Denoise in the new version?”. It’s pretty straightforward, and there’s actually several ways of doing it.

A while ago, I shared a video on YouTube on how to do SuperResolution and Denoise on the same image using Lightroom and Photoshop. The trick was to do Denoise first, then send the image to Photoshop, save it and send it back, and then you would be able to do SuperResolution. Unfortunately, in a recent update, Adobe has broken this workflow. I’ve been working on finding another workaround for this, and after a bit of experimentation, I think I’ve found the solution.

Adobe has announced a new release of Lightroom, and it has the usual bug fixes and new camera support in this release as well as some new features. There’s one new feature which, I think, is probably going to be what most people will talk about with this release; that’s the new generative remove, powered by the companies “Firefly” AI engine.

Today Adobe released the latest round of photography product updates, including all the versions of Lightroom, camera raw, etc. For the purposes of this post, I’m going to concentrate on Lightroom Classic 12.3. While this sounds like it should be a minor update given that it’s a point release, it is anything but. This could end up being one of the most substantial updates in years, based on just one of the features in the software
