Lightroom’s Biggest New Secret by Adam Jacobs

As a photographer, one of the biggest challenges you may face is dealing with noise in your photos, especially when shooting in low-light conditions. However, with the recent release of the “Denoise” button in Lightroom, photographers now have a powerful tool at their disposal to help combat noise and improve the quality of their images.

Here’s a link for a discounted subscription to Lightroom.


The Denoise button in Lightroom has a certain ‘Wow’ factor. It’s a new feature that allows photographers to reduce noise in their images with just a click of a button. This tool uses advanced algorithms to analyze the noise in the image and then intelligently removes it while preserving the details and sharpness of the image.


How can it help you?

The Denoise button in Lightroom can benefit photographers in several ways:

Better Low-Light Photography

  • Photographers can now shoot in low-light conditions without worrying about excessive noise in their images. The Denoise button can effectively reduce noise in the shadows and highlights of the image, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed image. For example, I was able to capture this waterfall in low light using a very fast shutter speed of 1/8000 to freeze all the drops without worrying about.noise.Click on the image below to open it up large and check out the before and after after using the Denoise button.

Better Quality Images

  • By reducing noise in the image, photographers can improve the overall quality of their images. Images with less noise appear sharper, have better contrast, and look more professional. Check out the difference from this photo of a cute seal shot in Northern California. You can especially see the difference in the background blur and in the details of their face.


Faster Post-Processing

  • Before the Denoise button, photographers had to spend a considerable amount of time manually removing noise from their images in post-processing using third party apps like Topaz Denoise. However, with the Denoise button, you can now remove noise with just a click of a button, saving valuable time and effort. This leaves you more time to go out and shoot!


More Creativity

  • Photographers can now experiment with shooting in low-light conditions without worrying about noise. This allows for more creative freedom and the ability to capture images that were previously difficult to shoot.


So, if you haven't already, give the Denoise button a try and see the difference it can make in your images!
