New Pure Raw 5 & Photolab 8.5

[Sandro_gsp]

Recently Pure Raw 5 & Photolab 8.5 introduced  2 new denoising features :  DeepPrime3  & XD3 X-trans

The latter is specific for X-trans Fuji cameras

My first tests show a fantastic chromatic aberration reduction ( I would say : total elimination). 

The effect is particularly noticeable at Iso 25600 and 51200 .   Now these extended iso are a completely viable solution for low light shots. !!

As for the luminance denoise, there is DeepPrime 3 , but unfortunately XD3 x-trans is not yet available for gen5 sensors ( i.e. my H2S is not yet supported)

I would like to share opinions with other fellows, and the processing parameters used.

Thanks for the info - I might upgrade when x-trans is fully supported

Actually x-trans sensors are supported by Dxo .
You can use the denoising DeepPrime3 , or XD/XD2
Only the newest XD3 is still to be released for gen5 fuji sensors.

And anyway the chromatic aberration removal is amazing, and is valid for any denoise method. (Afaik).

As a result I can process problematic 51200 iso pictures .
In comparison up to some time ago I would not dare going beyond iso 6400.
Now extended isos are just as good ad 6400 iso few years ago.   It's a 3 stops improvement !
