Ive had this for a while, but rarely use it. I do use Gigapixel and DeNoiseAI a lot though.

I thought Id try it out with a snapshot I took of my springer whilst messing about with my new Samyang 35mm F/1.4. I forgot to turn the ISO up, so the shot was taken at 1/13th and was obviously a bit blurry.

So not expecting much at all, I was quite surprised how well it did. Its not perfect with some odd artefacts here and there, but I guess with some tweaking in SharpenAI, you could get it better, I just used the auto setting.

If you had a once in a lifetime shot that was a bit out of focus, or suffered from motion blur, this might just make it usable.

Doesn't look as good linked here, but full size it looks great. Click on the image to see the bigger version.

 
I have just purchased the same - not used in anger yet- can it be added to Photoshop - anyone????

I have used it and its predecessor for many years now. You can access it from LR, PS or Studio 2 or even run as a stand alone.

Yep, it adds itself actually.
Hmm it didn't to mine - so I edit the image in PS - save to folder on PC resize image for web then run the image through Topaz- seems to work ok

Unless someone knows how to manually add Topaz????

Topaz Sharpen AI and Denoise AI both add themselves as plugins to Photoshop.

If you had PS open when you did the download and install they won't appear until you quit and restart PS.

To use them in in PS you need to have your image already open and then, from the top Menu select Filters, Topaz should appear on the drop-down menu, Simply select and do your processing. The result will then appear in PS as a new layer in PS so don't forget to save the final image. hth.
