Intensity: To reduce noise (a mottling phenomenon that occurs principally in photographs taken at high sensitivities), drag the slider to select a value from 0 (no noise reduction performed) to 100 (maximum noise reduction).
Sharpness: High levels of noise reduction may result in loss of definition. To increase sharpness, drag the slider to select a value from 0 (no sharpening performed) to 10 (maximum sharpness).
Method: Choose Faster for faster processing, Better quality for increased precision.
Edge Noise Reduction: Check this box to reduce noise along edges in the photo, making outlines more distinct.
Color Moiré Reduction (RAW images only): Color moiré (color interference caused by regular overlapping patterns) can be reduced using this option. Choose the amount of compensation performed from Off, Low, Medium, or High.
