Thanks to Peterj for his post about On1 Photo Raw 2024.5 and its noise reduction capabilities.
A few photographers here at PSEM use On1 but I've resisted getting new editing software. I shoot raw and use ACR inside PSE before editing in PSE 2023. Most of the time noise reduction is not needed but when needed both programs work okay ... usually. However, in extreme high ISO (noise) cases they do not do a good job.
Recently, I've ben taking grizzly bear photos in the evenings near or summer place. In 2023, I saw them in daytime twice, but so far this year they have only been seen just before sunset and lighting is low. The widest aperture on my 600-mm lens is f 6.3 so shutter speeds have to be lowered and/or ISO increased.
After Peter's post, I purchased On 1 RAW 2024.5 and had a go on one grizzly bear photo. Here are the results. Included are the final On1 image, my original ACR/PSE edit and the original raw image with in inset showing the unedited noise.
Thank you, Peter.
Original unedited raw with a slightly lightened inset showing noise

My original ACR/{SE edit...different colour hues and values.
