Most Recent Version of Lightroom Classic without the New "Raw Details" Code?
Adobe's AI Denoise was astoundingly good. It required some experimentation to find the right amount to apply. But I've literally saved photos shot at ISO 51200 with it. Even at 1%, it would dim the bright color pixels and give massive improvement.
So, when I was seeing moderately high ISO numbers in a senior photo shoot when the clouds came over, I shot anyway and expexted to use AI Denoise to get them into a really good state.
But unfortunately I had installed an update and didn't notice that this was (effectively from my perspective) broken. I find the "Raw Details" part of AI Denoise in this latest version, really wrecks the photo before Denoise is even applied. Meaning, "Raw Details" alone wrecks the photo. And AI Denoise forces this to be on and does not fix the damage.
I may have postponed an update or two before this, so am not sure how far I need to roll back to get to a version that does not have this significant change to AI Denoise. I understand that it may have always been doing something along the lines of what is now called "Raw Details". But it's different and over-sharpens significantly now. Does anyone know what version this was changed in?
Thanks in advance for info.
