Love the audio fx, bits and bups. Makes it much more evident that you love doing this. Another banger, buddy.

[DanielHanka]

Now this is what I call a tutorial! Love how you explain the mechanism of the tool and how powerful it could be. And also how dangerous it is to overdo it - with your own references. Thanks

[BANGBONSCHANNEL]

Thank you, Qazi, for including practice footage in your tutorials!

[jasonhayward]

This is it, by far the best NR tutorial I've seen (watched about half a dozen last week) - thanks so much! Sending it on to my team

[AllThingsFilm]

OMG. This is fantastic. It seems like all of your YT videos are a Masterclass in themselves. Thanks so much for this. Now, I'm going to watch the video about making Resolve run 75% faster. You're the GOAT.

[dermathias]

That's what I was looking for, thank you very much 🌞

[DavidWinstead]

Great work as always man, thanks for sharing your method!

[BrendonKPadjasek]

Every video or yours is 10/10 my man. Love it !

[OneDarkMartian]

Absolutely fantastic tutorial, thanks. DaVinci Resolve is something else. Amazing software.

Great video... Best explanation I've Heard about what Temporal and Spatial NR. There's another advanced method using grouping and secondaries to denoise only the problematic luminance values. That works great for long forma projects where You cannot spend too much time in every single shot.

[RockyColaFizz]

Best explanation of how this works I have seen after so many years. Thx!

[Helmersson]

I finally understand how to use the blur and sharpen. Thank you!

[johnsaxz]

Bro you are himmmm
I've been searching for about 2 hours now for how to fix the noise in Slog2 and boom you gave the solution. Love you man!!! My regards to your wife

[FabledFew]

Great video Qaz! Could you make a follow-up on how to then add film-grain to a denoised image?

[Antonino_Chiaramonte]

Thank you, Qazi; straight to the point and informative. However, what does Radius do in Spatial NR? I didn't catch it.

[rodrigomacias]

I always learn something new when I see your videos!

[NYCPhotographers]

Hi! A very useful video, and a very cool channel! Thank you

[brianrogers]

Best Tutorial on noise reduction I've seen 👌 👍😎

[SL__Films]

Ok, nice informative video. But what blew my mind was that ghosting effect. I had an event few months ago and people were dancing and i didn't have any clue why there is so much ghosting in the frame. I use all the time 5 frames on temporal NR. THANK YOU!!

[RogersPhotographyGuilford]

We've used this tool quite a bit and it does wonders for noisy low light footage. If you use it judiciously and experiment you'll be able to revive all but the most noisy footage.
