Denoise filter not working.

[Burke082]

Hello! I'm using the affinity 10 day trial and it was going great until now.

 

I first tried using the luminance in the RAW editor of my NEF file to get rid of the noise and it looked great, but after I clicked "develop" it went back to being really noisey and even worse than when I started.

 

I then tried just using the Denoise filter. It looked awesome as I was choosing the denoise setting, but when I clicked apply, again, it went back to being very noisey. I'm not sure what the problem is.

Hi Burke082,

 

Is it possible to post a screen shot of the issue that you are having with denoise.

Hi, this seems to be a recurring problem for people, for me it works no problem.  I can't explain why it is not working for others, which is not very helpful. But i can say that it does work, there again i don’t have any problems with the way develop is working in it’s existing state.  Not perfect but very usable.

 

Last time I saw a post about this I ran a few tests but didn’t get round to posting. These were just done to play with the noise settings in Develop on a Nef original. I didn’t bother with any other corrections.  Hopefully the screenshot captions are self explanatory.

Whoops, sorry I just realised that I have posted in the wrong place, I was attempting to reply to Burke082's other post at      Photo looks worse after raw edit.

Thanks for the reply TommyL! It was working for me a few days ago, but now it just doesn't want to know. Glad to hear it does work though!

Okay one of those occurrences! I think Affinity Photo is developing into an excellent tool and i really enjoy using it.  But it can be a fickle beast at times, slows to a crawl, becomes jerky and unusable for no apparent reason.  Then hangs and so on but generally an app restart sorts things out.
