Description Tommaso Schiavinotto 2008-07-17 11:55:06 UTC
Version:           9.3 (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

I usually don't want to apply noise reduction during the raw conversion. But sometimes when I take a picture with high ISO then I would like to do that...

Changing the option of applying noise reduction everytime I edit an image is quite unconvinient. I think most of the problems would be solved by offering an option in
the raw importer preferences asking for the minimal ISO for which noise reduction should be applied.

(the best thing would be to associate a threshold to every ISO, but I think this would complicate the GUI too much for the user).

Tommaso,

Ideally, The noise must be analysed from image automatically. For ex, last Sony DLSR application under Windows provide this option by default and work very well. User can disable it and adjust manually NR reduction settings.

The question is : how to implement it ?

Alex, if you know any code about...

If NR were to be applied depending on picture info (EXIF), it should take into account the pair "Camera+ISO Level", not just ISO level.
Of course, it would be even better to have a noise level detection.

Anyway, whatever the solution, this would be an excellent feature, and I definitely vote for it!

Noise Estimate tool is now available in in Editor and BQM, and can be used through NR tool to automatically adjust settings of YCrCb wavelets configuration.
