great review, thanks. I am currently looking for a Lightroom replacement and had almost decided on On1, but your findings are giving me pause for thought with regards to the demosaicing issue. I am also looking at Darktable and so what I am going to do is use On1 for its all-round capabilities and photo management, but use Darktable when I need to do some extreme RAW processing.
I too play with On1 whenever a new version comes out, and am impressed by how much better it's gotten: I think their engineering team is catching up to their marketing. Most disappointing is that they don't seem to have the will to circle back to features they added during their "more hype than substance" days, and as a result, things like HDR merge and Panorama merge (for example) are still several steps behind many freeware offerings.
Yea, there was definitely a rush to get to feature parity with Lightroom which didn't help them. Still I guess it's better than DxO's approach which is to iterate new features extremely slowly.
I have had On1 for years but for me this latest version has wrecked it .I can't work out why but everything is so slow. I am using 6 months old laptop with 16 GB ram , I7-I3700H processor, and RTX-4060 graphics so I don't think it is my computer. I have no problems with anything else. I have deleted it and reinstalled it but nothing improves.
@@alrafter1593 I'd say you need to look at optimising your system and/or increasing memory - I'm using both a 4 year old desktop but with 96 GB DDR4 memory with a geforce rtx 2060 and a similar aged laptop using the 2060 laptop version but with only 32 GB memory - no issues with performance, but what you consider 'slow' may be different to me.
Thanks! I do agree with your test results! I like how easy to use ON1 interface is so at the moment I am actually using DXO Pure Raw 4 for demosaicing and noise and then the rest of the processing in ON1
Very interesting stuff, sort of makes me appreciate the 'it just works' effectiveness of Lightroom when I select the sky, even if I'm looking at alternatives to it.
Thank you for reviewing the program, I like it, and I use it, but the best thing they do have is their huge presets collection. The AI brushes are not too precise if you have smaller details. Thank you and have a nice day , best from Uruguay. PS the "Black slider" is not good either, it turns things into white!!! On the first set of photos, I think you should turn the exposure down to he On1 app as well.
In the demosaicing section, are you not presuming that the threshold between highlights, midtones and shadows remains the same across applications? If one application considers highlights to be the top 30% of the histogram, and the next considers it to be the top 20%, there will be a marked difference without also controlling the midtones and shadows.
Possibly, but I also used every applicable tool to try and pull-back those highlights and the information simply wasn't there - that's a demosaicing issue.
I'm new to this program, so still in my test period. I had a quite noisy picture that was denoised and sharpened via AI so it became sharper and the main subject stood out, but the picture also became too smooth so lots of details in for instance the wood disappeared. I tried to reduce the denoise to increase the details, but than it seemed to become much more noisy. I probably need to use masking to get around this. Still have to discover it further, but not sure it is a program for a beginner in AI controlled program. A suggestion for a better program for an amateur, or should I try it further as the price is acceptable for me?
The best denoise at the moment is DxO's which you can find in their PureRAW pre-processing tool and in their full RAW editor Photolab. TopazLabs used to be good but definitely isn't any more. If you are on a Mac then Photomator has surprisingly good AI denoising.
Just dial it back a little. Try turning off micro sharpening. Try turning off color noise repair if you don't have color noise. Try turning on/off high detail. The default settings can be a little heavy handed sometimes. That's why there are adjustments.
I've used on1for about 3 years now . I downloaded this 24.5 version as soon as it came out. I don't know what has happened but it is now almost impossible to use it takes minutes to do anything .I am using 6 months old laptop with 16 GB ram , I7-I3700H processor, and RTX-4060 graphics. No problem with anything else.
@@simonchilds2928 I think I have found my problem. I re installed it twice to see if I could get it to work properly with no effect. I then looked at where it was installed. ie programs/ ON1/On1 photo raw 24.5. In that folder there was lots of files, I don't know what they do but I noticed that some had a different install date than others. I was a bit worried about it but I deleted them all. Just the files not some of the folders that are also their. Went to the install file which I had last downloaded and reinstalled it. When I restart it now it takes about a minute to a minute and a half to start but now appears to be working properly although I haven't used it much yet One problem I found was that the original shortcut doesn't work and at first I thought it wouldn't start . Just find the exe file in that folder I mentioned and it does. I haven't had time but I expect a short cut taken off it will.

@@blackislepeastoo That's rubbish there are no laptops on sale with that much memory. most have 16gb. So are you saying in order to use a photo editing software you must spend tens of thousands on a computer .
Great comparison. Great review. Definitely lots to define. The lack of more advanced adjustments which Photoshop offered was disappointing. 9:00 I don't think this showed up when I tried it, or it had this when I tried it, or I somehow missed it. But nice to see it has sky mask now or has it at all. But Shame it's not as good as Lightroom. Lightroom does a great job. Nice DXO improved and added features over the years, it came a long way from DxO Optics Pro 9 Which I tried many years ago Completely different name, and design. But tested DCO PhotoLab 7. But it's not perfect. I didn't find tone mapping / texture and clarity The de-fringing control is not as good as Lightroom Classic and Rawtherapee, they don't have perfection but more adjustment. But they call it Chromatic Aberration.
Thanks. Yea, it's definitely improving rapidly. I think the mistake they made was to rush to add features so there was parity with other apps when they should have spot much more time finessing the core features and a smaller selection of newer ones.
Found this really useful as I was going to buy especially as some folks had recommended. I like the thought of no subscription but I do want everything to be as good as possible so if something else’s does it better then enough said.
I'm not sure what "demosaicing" is, I'm not having any troubles with ON1 -- just that I utterly detest their new masking window -- it replaces what I thought was a near ideal masking interface.
Demosaicing is just the decoding of the RAW photographic data into an actual photo. If it's coded well it means that you can get more dynamic range and better colours from the file - DxO Photolab gets me about an extra stop of light in highlights recovery.
I jumped ship to make a point. I’ve enjoyed it so far but usually don’t need to make too many heavy adjustments with what I’m doing. The denoise isn’t as good as Lightroom definitely. I haven’t had to many tougher images to edit though recently. Waiting and see where adobe goes over the next 3 months, I might just keep Lightroom and ditch photoshop as affinity 2 as met all my needs. On1 hadn’t been a regrettable decision but it’s definitely no there with Lightroom, it’s not deal breaker level though.
After using lightroom for years, then getting screwed by adobe, I tried on1. I use sony A7, surprisingly I get the same results as lightroom by loading the Jpegs that the sony produces, then tweeking them in on1, (just like any other photo processing software 😊)
Luminar didn't have the best demosaicing engine last time I tested it - On1 was definitely better. But I haven't seriously tested it in over a year. :)
Kann On1 irgendwie Personen taggen wie Lightroom? Ich sehe nur, dass man nach Anzahl an Gesichtern, Alter und Geschlecht filtern kann. Welches Programm ist da ansonsten noch gut geeignet? Mylio hab ich getestet. Das stürzt aber schon beim Versuch ab, Fotos von meinem NAS zu importieren.
Maybe you could compare Luminosity masks to see if ON1 would fare better. Those would seem to be better tools for detailing around tree limbs (although tree limbs against a dark background may not work very well with a Luminosity mask). I know you were concentrating on AI Masking tools but your tests just made me curious.
Yea, luminosity masks would definitely do a better job with something like this. But ultimately it comes down to speed, accuracy and convenience. I can mask in Lightroom with one of the AI masks and finesse very quickly with add, subtract or intersect. I usually have upwards of 200 photos from a landscape shoot and I'd be at it all week if I used luminosity masks on all of 'em :)
Great review which perfectly shows the cheap engine behind this. No point in AI masking if the RAW processing is terrible and you can't recover anything anyway. I tried a bunch of free open source and cheap software and none of them came close to the image quality of my free Capture One Fuji Converter. The tool is fairly limited but I still get better results in half the time than paying for these shitty AI-heavy knock-offs.
Great to see someone using a real crappy (everyday) file for a true comparison 👋👋 I gave On1 a good go back 2017-18 . I really liked the On1 way; but but but 🤕 Maybe my well known old Lr5 and Affinity Photo will do what I need to do for few more years .Getting too old to learn or relearn new apps . I often feel noise is over rated or overly worried about . Sometime I feel it's just because bad/lazy photography. Way back in film days grain became a drama at 400asa Great no BS review . Thank you!. Would love to know how well the DAM system has improved --- rather useless I thought in 2018 On a personal note: for my smashed up hearing , I appreciated your voice, and (&^%$) no music :)
It's almost there - like Topaz Photo AI. In both cases we can watch the never ending attempts to add sales arguments for support of the next release instead of correcting known issues. I had a On1 Photo RAW license for a short time. Then dropped it, when a bug came in the way. The 'almost there' impression has been painted all over these products for a very long time. I think the On1 team is honestly struggling to keep up, but the results are what count.
I think they bit off more than they could chew with the new AI tools in the 2024 release, but it's starting to come good now. Not that I'd switch to it.
I think I can appreciate your intent.... anti-Fan Boy approach.... but you're comparing such a limited toolset that you'll simply never reach any other conclusion than the one you continue to reach: On1 is never going to beat DxO's demosaicing, and never going to beat Lr's masking. Those are the respective company's class-leading, R&D-busting showcase capabilities. You buy On1 for the price-to-capability ratio. (I own/have used all three, for the record).
Cheers. I compared it to everything, but for the sake of brevity in the video I just demonstrated DxO and Photolab. I actually own all the other editors except for On1 (i.e. Photolab, C1, Photomator, Pixelmator, Photoshop/ACR, Lightroom, Luminar, Affinity). I take your point about the pricing, but would point out that On1 charge for the annual upgrade and it's not a huge reduction off the full price. To be honest, if price is the main reason for purchase, I'd be far more included to get DxO Pure RAW 2024 to pre-process and maximise dynamic range in the RAW and then something like Photomator to post-process. :)
Yeah I have all those tools. I think Andy does great reviews but this isn't realistic. We are judging it on its ability to rescue poor images. That's not what I need. If I really need that frame and massively over or under processed it I would run it through dxo first. I get it right on camera most of the time
@tonygorham it's always the best bet to get it right in camera, that's for sure. But it's not just about saving bad images - there's colour data that's not being picked up by On1. Admittedly you'd be fine pre-processing in PureRAW, but it needs pointing out. :)
@@Andyhutchinson yeah it's a good review and I subscribed when I found your channel last week based on your earlier review of on1. I only just got on1 this week. For 'serious' work I think I would run then through pure raw. Gotta say the portrait ai in pure raw is good. Like actually really good
@@tonygorham thanks Tony. That's good to know about the portraits. It's a good point actually, I need to state that I'm a landscape photographer processing landscape shots when I do these videos. I wouldn't use C1 for landscapes for instance, but for portraits it seems far better suited.
Your 'demo' was totally unconvincing! For ON1 you didn't even try to adjust Exposure, nor did you adjust the Brilliance slider downwards. Then you claim to have spent a lot of time with ON1 before making this video, yet your tone when using ON1 is very negative, whereas the other app you used apparently walks on water! TOTAL Thumbs down, and I'm unsubscribing!
lol - and there was me thinking I was being generally positive towards the app. I did spend some time with it - and looking forward to spending some time with the big October release too, which I've heard good things about. :)
@@Andyhutchinson I did not get the vibe that you were positive to ON1 at all. Unnecessarily so. I don't know if you do, but I find the ON1 video tutorials extremely helpful.
Not really. There's no sensor on the market that can always capture the entire dynamic range of a particular scene. Having better demosaicing doesn't compensate for shitty photography, it just enables you to get the best out of the image.

Well, Topaz Denoise is no longer being developed as they've transitioned over completely to the all-in-one Photo AI - but it's still better.

I tried this product recently. I just don't get it.
Thanks Andy! Question: if you start with a decently exposed image is the RAW processing deficiency as big a concern or drawback?
Not so much no - it just speaks to the RAW decoding as a whole and impacts how nuanced you can be with your edits.
