Hi All,

Please be gentle with me as this is my first post!!

I have been using Photoshop CC for about a year now and Lightroom since LR 4, I pay Adobe monthly for Photoshop LR and Bridge so should maintain the lastest version of each which SHOULD all work together.
If I open a picture from my windows computer, it goes straight into ACR where I can make any adjustments that I need/want to, once I am happy with the picture I click open image and it opens in Photoshop but this is where I seem to have a problem, the picture that opens is very noisy and certainly not the picture I had in ACR. I have only noticed this in the last 2-3 months, prior to that I never noticed anything different from the ACR image to the Image displayed in Photoshop. The noise can be reduced by opening ACR again and adjusting the Luminance, but it is guess work at the ACR image looks ok. It doesn't matter which of my camera's the image has come from either the Nikon D7000 or the Nikon D300s, nor does it matter if it is a Tif or Raw starting image the move from ACR to Photoshop seems to currently give the same results.

I hope this makes sense and that someone may have a clue or be experiencing the same problems.

Thanks in advance for your help.

only thing i can think of is in photoshop preferences theres some kind of auto adjustment enabled thats causing the problem. might be worth just opening photoshop then look in the preferences settings to see if something amiss is enabled ( sharpening maybe or something similar )
 
I only run elements 11 but if i sharpen or denoise in ACR apart from the 25% preset sharpen its crap when it goes to elements,i gave up trying to find out why but hopefully the answer will come along soon.
 
Cheers guys,
the problem has only been noticeable for the last few months, possibly since the last update or 2, it is not a massive problem but it is frustrating.
I will try contacting Adobe, wish me luck with that!

Thanks again.
 
Can you take screen grabs of the image in ACR then in PS?
 
First off try viewing the image in ACR at 100% photoshop only really shows sharpening and noise reduction properly at 100% (although it does a fair job at 50%) secondly check you haven't got any grain added in ACR. Lastly try turning off any sharpening and see what happens, the detail slider is famous for "bringing up noise".
 
Thanks all, I am working away until the weekend so will have a look at some of your suggestions then.

Thanks for your help.
