Hello, I watched Mark Galer’s tutorial (2025) and was intrigued with the Lens Softness Compensation. However, under Denoise, I cannot find this in my Photolab 9, I just upgraded to the latest version, no success. I am on Windows. Is this tool gone?
Hello,
I installed v9.10 and no change, this function is still there.
Is the camera/lens combination installed ?
Are you viewing a RAW file ?
It’s only there for supported lenses that you have downloaded the relevant optics module. If as Franky points out it is a raw file.
What was once called ‘Lens Softness Compensation’ has changed its name in PL9 to ‘Lens Sharpness Optimization’.
The metrics and default have also changed – current default of 100 corresponds to old 0.0, while old default 1.0 is now about 133.
Ok, found it under it’s new name, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. ![]()
