DeepPRIME
noise reduction

Would you like a new sensor in your camera? One that delivers finer detail and less noise?

It sounds impossible, but this is effectively what DxO’s unique DeepPRIME and DeepPRIME XD2s (eXtra Detail v2) technologies deliver. Here’s how they work.

Denoising and
demosaicing
explained

Two of the fundamental steps of RAW processing are demosaicing and denoising.

Demosaicing is the process of converting individual pixel values for red, green, and blue into accurate colors (learn more here). Denoising is the correction of erroneous pixels generated by interference or heat inside your camera — something that becomes more pronounced when shooting at high ISO levels. These processes are critical in extracting the best possible quality from your RAW files.

Incomparable results

DeepPRIME removes noise and recovers information without losing detail, creating more natural transitions and textures. The results are spectacular and, as explained below, the introduction of DeepPRIME XD2s has pushed results even further. Compared to conventional RAW conversion technologies, DeepPRIME delivers the equivalent of an extra two stops of ISO of detail; with DeepPRIME XD2s, it can be three stops, and sometimes more.

The future is here.
Try DeepPRIME XD2s for eXtra Detail

There are two levels of DeepPRIME processing available in DxO PureRAW  5 and PhotoLab8: DeepPRIME and DeepPRIME XD3. Both algorithms reduce noise, increase clarity, and purify results from your camera’s sensor, but the newer DeepPRIME XD3 mode requires more intensive handling.

DeepPRIME

DeepPRIME is our original, groundbreaking technology based on machine learning. Its processing remains a fantastic choice for images where noise must be eliminated and detail enhanced.

DeepPRIME XD2s

DeepPRIME XD2s is the latest generation of our ‘eXtra Detail’ version of our machine learning technology. Built using a larger neural network, it is at the cutting edge of demosaicing and denoising, designed for the most demanding images. Expect photos free from noise, with smoother bokeh, finer textures, and colors that are true to life.

Both DeepPRIME and DeepPRIME XD2s are compatible with cameras from most major manufacturers, including Canon, DJI, Hasselblad, Nikon, Panasonic, Pentax, Olympus/OM System, Sony, Leica, and more.
