"The Best Digital Noise Reduction
Software Currently Available
"
Michael Reichmann

Neat Image is indispensable in low-light (indoors, night, no-flash, astro) and high-speed (sport, action, children) photography. It is a must-have tool for both professional photographers and digital image processing enthusiasts.

  • Neat Image v7 plug-in for Aperture (Mac OSX)

    Neat Image team is pleased to introduce the 7th generation of its noise reduction solution for digital photography that inherits and refines the highest quality and efficiency traditionally delivered by Neat Image.

    The new major version of Neat Image plug-in for Aperture includes the following changes and improvements:

    • Higher performance: the first GPU-accelerated version of Neat Image plug-in for Aperture

      • CUDA support: faster noise reduction using modern CUDA-compatible GPUs (on Intel Macs)
        For example, on NVidia GTX 285 Neat Image is about x2.5 faster than on Intel i7 and x3-x7 faster than on Intel i5 or Core2 Duo

      • Multiple GPU support
        Neat Image works even faster with two or more CUDA GPUs

      • CPUs and GPUs working together
        Neat Image can use CPUs and GPUs at the same time for even faster processing

      • Automated optimization of performance settings for multi-core, multi-CPU and multi-GPU systems
        • Built-in benchmark to measure image processing speed on specific hardware
        • Built-in performance optimizer in Neat Image Preferences


    • More improvements
      • Smart Profile: automatically uses two different profiling methods and selects the better resulting profile for more accurate noise reduction

      • Redesigned graphics elements throughout the plug-in

      • Improved metadata (EXIF) compatibility with the latest Nikon cameras:
        D7000, D3100, P500, P300, P7000, S8100, etc.


  • Pricing and availability

    Neat Image plug-in for Aperture is available in the following three editions:

    • Pro plug-in: supports both 8- and 16-bit images and supports unlimited batches; $69.90; purchase
