One of the short comings of digital images is that they are a bit noisy (especially in poor light or with a high ISO setting). To that end, I had a program at one point that removed noise and made the images appear much better (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.picturecode.com\/index.php\">Noise Ninja<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Recently, PHSC assessed the app called &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.topazlabs.com\/topaz-photo-ai\">Sharpen AI<\/a>&#8216; for image sharpening. Since I already have, use, and like the &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.focusmagic.com\/\">Focus Magic<\/a>&#8216; plug-in, I saw no need to cough up another $79US.<\/p>\n<p>Now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matiash.com\/\">Brian Matiash<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matiash.com\/e\/BAh7BjoWZW1haWxfZGVsaXZlcnlfaWRsKwiYFnG5AgA%3D--13a210cfad164e8e371deacaa4266620d86a3c15?skip_click_tracking=true\">extols the virtues of Topaz Photo AI<\/a> for both sharpening and noise reduction on images &#8211; at $199US.
