TPF Noob!
I have just started using paintshop and neat image and would appreciate clarification on a couple of things please.
Firstly, I have a Canon S3IS and all my images come out at 180dpi. So far I havn't figured out how to change this in camera so I am changing the image size to 300dpi in PS. Should I do this before or after I run the image through Neat Image to reduce noise? At the moment I am doing it after running through neat image, but suddenly thought I might be adding more noise back in
Also, I am only using the auto profile on NI, does it make a big difference to use all the manual settings? Generally my photos have around 95% profile quality and 100% match (actually I am not really sure what this means, but I guess I nees to get my photos to 100%?). I generally only change the luminance chanel to 60-65% very occasionally to 75% - does it detract from the image if you go higher (other than the obvious visual change when it get plasticky looking).
Thanks heaps!
