![]() ![]() Although there are some choices for sharpening level within TS options, it is not as flexible as I would like, I think in an earlier version there was a slider to adjust the level of sharpening processing. ![]() I have to try more images, to confirm my comment above about the final image looking too ‘processed’. It does not take noticeably longer to process Tiffs than Jpegs, and I think this will become my standard. Nothing I can find resolves this problemĮxporting a Jpeg from PL5 works perfectly like the Tiff, however the result looks more ‘processed’ than that from Tiff. I managed to find time this morning for a test with one image, The result is this:Įxporting a 16 bit tiff from PL5, importing and sharpening in Topaz and saving with ‘preserve source’ profile as you suggest (which seems to be the default) works perfectly.Įxporting a DNG from PL5 results in a very dark image in the TS preview, and a very dark image after saving. However Topaz does not have a complete editing suite, so I will stay with PL5 as my editor, and deep prime as my NR preference (I have not tried Topaz NR, but generally deep prime gets better recommendations) I will feed in any updates as I go along, I certainly plan on including Sharpen in my workflow and bought the license yesterday. I get output from Deep Prime (20Mp image) in about 6 seconds, and sharpen is taking about the same time per image, It’s a big improvement on my old graphics! Both PL5 deep prime and sharpen AI use the M1 graphics automatically. Sharpen AI auto does not always get it right and it’s worth while trying the other options if it is an important photo. However I find that sometimes the results are fantastic, sometimes just a little improvement. Your output looks good, but without I could find the original so it’s hard to judge the improvement. I will be tied up for the next few days but will do it as soon as I get a moment. I will try output from PL5 in Tiff as you suggest and with preserve source file (which I have not tried). Thanks for the reply and for your experiments. I can reimport the JPEG output from Topaz to PL5 and correct it, but it is not perfect.Īny ideas why I am having this difficulty? Is it that PL5 is applying default corrections to my RAWs and is not applying those to the DNG export? I have tried both of the options for DNG export, with all corrections, and without optical corrections, and get the same effect.įurther info is that when I open the PL5 export before the Topaz import it looks normal, so maybe this is not a PL5 problem, but hopefully someone is doing this and has found a solution However, when I output to DNG, I find the exported image is underexposed about 1 stop, and contrast is very low. If I output to DNG I get much better results than if I output JPEG. Here youll see Windows and Mac online Installers as well as full installers and compatible installers from some older operating systems. ![]() To get the best results I don’t do any sharpening with PL5 (other than any default). Download From The Topaz Labs Download Page The most up-to-date versions of all of our currently available software can be found on our Topaz Labs Downloads Page. I have recently been experimenting with Topaz Sharpening AI (trial) and must say that the results are very impressive. I use PL5 as my main PP editor, and generally output everything through Deep Prime (Mac mini makes this fast and practical) I must be doing something stupid and would appreciate help! ![]()
