It's quite accurate and, if you're new to colour grading, it might be one of the best 'tutorials' on the subject you can find. With this tool, inexperienced colourists answer a series of questions, after which the plug-in figures out the best colour settings itself. Even pros will have to admit Colorista 4.0 is efficient to work with, while occasional colour grading users will love the 'Guided Color Correction' workflow tool. I think most will agree Color Finale Pro is in a league of its own, with its support for ACES, X-Rite calibration feature and control surface capabilities, but Colorista 4.0 is nothing to sneeze at, either. It offers full control over the look and feel of the noise you add and has extended controls for sharpening, texture and types of grain you want to add.

What the Renoiser plug-in is good at, however, is to give digital footage a grainy film look. If you don't like the plastic look you inevitably get with a heavily denoised image, I wouldn't recommend using the brand new Renoiser 1 to add noise again. Rendering noise reduction results remains a slow affair, though.ĭenoiser 3.0 effect depicted in middle section Denoiser 3.0 gives splendid results out of the box. In Final Cut Pro X, I used Photon Pro, which did a good job, but required a lot of repeated small adjustments to get it right, taking an awful lot of time. Denoiser used to work only with Adobe products. Here's a plug-in that has been entirely rewritten, resulting in a slimmed down set of controls. Perhaps the least spectacular, but most important new module in Magic Bullet Suite 13 is Denoiser 3.0. Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro users will be happy to know that Looks 4 and Denoiser 3 now enjoy Mercury support, which means they now have real-time playback of the effects in their favourite composition and editing applications. Version 13 includes new versions of Colorista, Looks, Denoiser, Film, Mojo and Cosmo.
