Macphun is a leading photography software developer with over 25 million users. The company is known among Mac users and designers as makers of high-quality and super intuitive applications that add a lot of value to photographers at a fraction of the price of competing prosumer editing software. 

Noiseless, the latest application is being offered in a public preview ahead of the formal launch. Using new advanced imaging technology, Noiseless provides a oneclick solution for eliminating the pixelated/grainy patterns generated by nearly every camera when shooting in poorly lit situations. Users of smartphones, action cams, point & shoot cameras and entry level DSLRs will especially benefit from this new, affordable app. It can be used as a standalone application or as a plugin with popular photo editing apps like Photoshop, Lightroom and Aperture.

To learn more about Noiseless, watch videos and to download the Public Preview, visit www.macphun.com/noiseless.

Noise is created in situations where the camera automatically increases the ISO sensitivity to correct for low light conditions, thus introducing intrusive grain and speckles to the image.

Noiseless is an ultraeasy to use tool for photographers of all levels which incorporates a number of presets for one click noise reduction. Smart technology in the noise reduction algorithms of Noiseless also automatically compensates to overcome special challenges presented by today’s smartphones, action cams and entry level

DSLR’s. Advanced users can tap into the “Adjust Panel” of Noiseless for even greater control, including unique detail preservation and selective reduction tools.

“We’re very confident that Noiseless is the most capable of any noise reduction tool out there. Plus, it offers extra controls over detail, selective adjustment of noise reduction and ease of use that simply are cutting edge,” said Paul Muzok, CEO of Macphun. “I would encourage every photographer—including people who own smartphones or already have a noise reduction tool—to download Noiseless and give it a “test drive.”

Two versions: Standard & Pro

In its final release, Noiseless will come configured in a standard version sold exclusively on the Mac App Store and a Pro version sold on Macphun’s website at www.macphun.com/noiseless. The Pro version will add a powerful, proprietary RAW noise reduction technology, support for additional color space models, extra detail controls and the ability to run as a plugin within Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, and Apple Aperture.
