neatimage alternatives?
Are there any alternatives to neatimage that is just as good but
cheaper/free? Or, does the latest photoshop have this feature (I plan to buy it some day)? |

Photoshop CS2 (shipping in May) has a new feature to reduce noise (or grain) A current alternative to NeatImage is Noise Ninja.

Probably the same code as in Photoshop CS2. -- Ron Hunter |

Are there any alternatives to neatimage that is just as good but cheaper/free? Isn't Neat Image free ? It's called demo version, but it is stated on their site that you can use it for free as long as you want for non-commercial purposes "The Demo edition of Neat Image is distributed as freeware for non-commercial use". The only thing you miss is the batch processing. -- Marie-Aude http://www.trassagere.com http://www.oasisdemezgarne.com |

their site that you can use it for free as long as you want for non-commercial purposes When I bought NI a couple of years ago there were four or five versions, I *think* the free one only worked on jpegs, not on tiffs, so it's not much use for many of us. IIRC there was a cheap version for 8 bit tiffs, a more expensive version for 16 bit/channel files, and another more expensive version that was a Photoshop plug-in (instead of standalone). Something like that ... Bill |

Something like that ... As far as I can see on their site, the difference is more on handling 16bits, provinding or not the plusing for photoshop, and batch possibilities. They say you can mork directly on TIFF images as well on JPEG, that should be available in the free version. -- Marie-Aude http://www.trassagere.com http://www.oasisdemezgarne.com |

At leat now it's working on TIFF http://www.neatimage.com/featu=ADremap.html In the table for Demo (free) mode for 8 bit tiffs it says "+/- **" ... look below in the fine print and it says "** +/- means input is supported and output is not" ... which means you can LOAD an 8 bit tiff and run the program to see what it will look like but you cannot write out in tiff format, which means it's useless on tiffs for practical purposes (except as a visual demo). At least that's how I interpret it, and though it's been 2-3 years since I used the Demo I think that's how it works. Bill |
