Deep Prime vs ON1 NoNoise

But, the real time display is very handy for “tuning” the AI noise reduction algorithms. I don’t think DxO has anything to worry about in the short term - but also needs to figure out how to do full image previews of Deep Prime processing.

I find it hard to believe in miracles; for the processing to be displayable in real time, the processing speed must be multiplied by fifty.
ON1 would be genius if they succeeded !
And if the process could be made from jpeg pictures, it would be a second miracle ; ON1 specifies that result is better from RAWs (as expected !).

Matching the output of PhotoLab exactly to PureRAW could be difficult since we don’t know how DXO set the automatic defaults. Besides DeepPRIME (as well as PRIME and HQ), Pureraw also applies chromatic aberration adjustments, lens distortion adjustments, lens sharpness, and vignetting adjustments.

To match against PureRAW, i would start by using the no correction preset in PhotoLab to make sure no edits are applied to your image. Then, use the auto settings (the magic wand) for Chromatic Aberration, Distortion, DXO Denoising, and Vignetting. Use the default settings for Lens Sharpness.

Export the raw image from PhotoLab with these settings using the Export as DNG (Denoise and Optical Corrections only) option and compare the output with the PureRAW DNG version of the image. You may need to adjust the auto settings in Photolab for a closer match. Hope this helps.

The comparison should be made for me on basis of a complete process ; I would not imagine produce a picture without correcting chromatic aberrations, distortion,… This is a strong point for PL4.
If you want to compare, you could use the same pictures as used in this post.
