It used to be that if your digital image was too small for a particular application, you had no real options. You were stuck at the original resolution, or at least something close to it. Upscaling technology has changed the game, but not all apps are made equal.
Topaz Labs' Gigapixel is one of the best applications available for upscaling images. Now, it should be even better, thanks to the largest update to the program that Topaz Labs has released in over a year. Users will see a range of improvements, including a fresh UI and, not surprisingly, upgrades to the AI engine.
Landscape photographer Michael Shainblum's latest video takes a very close look at noise reduction software, specifically when using noise reduction on landscape images. Shainblum published an article on his website that includes sample images and crops, which are more beneficial than viewing comparisons in the YouTube video featured below.

Video processing workflow will never be the same. With Topaz Video AI you can easily upscale up to 4K or 8K, enhance, sharpen, eliminate noise, stabilize, and adjust frame rate. And that’s just one of the many image-enhancing apps from Topaz Labs that are on sale NOW.
360 and Virtual Tour photographer Ben Claremont recently demonstrated the incredible power of AI-photo editing by transforming a 360 image from 2015.
Topaz Labs has announced a new program called Topaz Photo AI, a program that it says combines all its best image tools to automatically detect and fix image quality issues using deep learning.
Astrophotography is a discipline rife with compromises. It’s a battle of shutter speed, aperture, and ISO with no one combination being completely ideal. That’s where Topaz Labs in the edit comes to the rescue.
The most fun I have with photography is capturing something I’ve never seen before. Of course, that sets up a lot of pressure to come away with tack-sharp perfect photos. Topaz Labs is how I ensure my success.
Many things that used to be true about photo editing are no longer the case, such as not being able to fix a subject that was accidentally out of focus or not being able to recover much detail when doing heavy noise reduction. Topaz Labs is a big reason as to why we can approach post-processing differently now.
For the past few years, I've been content with keeping my entire photo editing worldview pegged to the Adobe ecosystem. Anything that Lightroom couldn't handle, or that required more refined content-aware heavy-lifting, was offloaded to Photoshop. And that's the way things went for a very long time.
Adobe’s new Super Resolution is making a big splash in the industry as photographers can output cleaner upscaled images at four times the original pixel count. Is it really impressive enough to take the crown from Topaz Labs’ Gigapixel AI?
Photographer Jomppe Vaarakallio has been a professional retoucher for 30 years, but he's never seen anything quite like this before. While working on an image, he used Topaz Labs' Gigapixel AI software to upscale it... and found that the software added Ryan Gosling's face to his photo.
Yesterday, Topaz Labs—the software company behind popular photo editing plugins and software like DeNoise AI, Sharpen AI, and Gigapixel AI—announced that it will start charging for product upgrades. Users are understandably upset.
YouTuber Denis Shiryaev used publicly available AI-based technology to take a grainy, low-resolution short film from the year 1896 and upscale it all the way to 4K and 60 fps. The results, while not perfect, are downright astonishing.
I got an email notifying me of the release of Topaz Sharpen AI, a program that enhances details and fixes out-of-focus/blurred shots. I initially expected that it was something similar to Adobe Enhance Details, which slightly enhanced the details of some specific shots and didn’t work for many other images. Topaz provided a demo fully-functional for 30 days, so I decided to give it a try.
Over the years, I have come across this question often: “Can a JPEG image be enhanced to a RAW image quality?” I understand where this question comes from. Photographers are taught to “shoot in RAW” from day one. These days, so many images are only in JPEG format, from phone photos to stock photos, to those priceless old pictures. It would be really nice if we could enhance them to RAW image quality so they could fit into today’s photographer’s RAW image editing workflow!
