Changes in noise reduction for darktable 2.7/3.0

Also, I have never quite been able to grasp the immediate consequences of a lot of Aurelien’s fights with some of Darktable’s tools and decisions, esp.regarding lab vs rgb, right now I do understand a little bit more. I would probably need to put up a post asking for some more direct information, such as: am I “allowed” to do tone curves in lab mode? or is preferrable to do tone curves in rgb mode selecting one of the options to “preserve colors” (but then which one? Max rgb, average, etc…).

Have a look at this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuB9khJIrDI
Aurélien explains quite a lot of things in this video, it should makes things clearer

In the meantime, thanks so much for explaning how the new denoise works and how it’s meant to be used.

Happy to help
