General CG Discussion / Cycles denoiser
« on: 2019-08-27, 21:29:49 »
I just stumbled upon this picture with various denoisers being compared in Blender. At first glance it seemed nothing unusal, but then i noticed Cycles denoiser results. Some may say that they are much noisier than that of other (supposedly AI) denoisers in the chart, but to my eye, its output is much more pleasing, because it not simply smears details or creates halucinated artifacts, but rather merges pixel size noise into bigger blobs and makes it appear as more "photographic". Any day of the week i would choose this coarse noise over clinically clean, plastic output of AI denoisers. Would love to see something similar in Corona. What do you think?
