Recover original detail when removing noise
Removing all noise can sometimes make an image appear unnaturally smooth. To fix this, you can now add original image detail back into your denoised result:
Increase the Recover Original Detail slider to intelligently blend luminance detail back into your image while still removing all color noise. While not necessary for all images, it can improve how natural images appear without compromising on noise reduction quality:

Recover Original Detail is currently only available for non-raw images, but we will add it to Raw Remove Noise soon as well.
