One recommended workflow for noisy images is to denoise first then make edits but PureRAW seems to be doing both. As the ISO increase, and need for more aggressive denoise, PureRAW adjusts the tonality of the photo.Reminds me of the choices of Topaz DeNoise methods but there, I have tweaking I can do on noise and sharpening settings. There is only a control for method of denoise in PureRAW. I feel I'm loosing control of the workflow.LrC recognizes this and stops me from applying them again. A problem I found was that it applies lens correction to my E-PM1 ORF files even though those are done in camera.I don't have a need for extensive lens correction.I feel Topaz DeNoise and Sharpening do the job I need and I have control on how they are applied.I am not sure if I'm gaining anything using DxO's RAW converter over LrC's.

PureRAW is giving me a preprocessed version of my RAW file in DNG format but I am not clear about everything it is doing.

PureRAW is not a product I will be using for the following personal reasons. I have not tried DxO Photolab which someone suggested as a comparison. I downloaded a trial version of DxO PureRAW and tried it on some older pictures with ISO ranging from 400-25,600. For post processing, I use LrC and Topaz DeNoise and Sharpen. I've already commented on another post on PureRAW but here are some of my personal conclusions.įor background, I shoot with a Nikon D5300 and Olympus E-PM1 micro four thirds.
