This is why I keep working versions around until new versions are tested. However, with the TL installers that is easier said than done. See here
DeNoise
v2.3.4: good
v3.2.x: bad (*)
v3.7.x: v3.2.x badness gone, but doesn’t seem any better than v2.3.4?
(*) The issue here is my DeNoise version is currently frozen at v3.2.x based on non-active upgrade status, but this version (3.2.x) clearly has some major problems. Ok, why is that an issue?
I tried them all. Severe-Noise was no better than Standard. Low-light was no better than Standard.
The differences are really obvious, but a bit harder to see with the image resolutions of the uploads. The top of the wooden hat is still quite evident, though.
