Hi all,

I am not impressed by the noise reduction tool in Phocus and prefer to use the NIK Dfine 2 plugin in Photoshop. Part of my standard workflow in Phocus is to reduce the luminance noise filter setting to -10 to prevent any noise reduction in Phocus. I would like to be able to create an adjustment preset for only this noise reduction so I can apply it to all pictures during image import in Phocus.

I have tried creating such a preset by copying the adjustments in the 'current' tab of the adjustment browser to the 'user' tab, while switching off all other adjustment tools and leaving white balance to 'as shot'. Unfortunately, when using this approach, Phocus will also copy the specific temperature and tone settings of the white balance tool from the picture on which the noise reduction settings were based. Is there any way around this when creating the preset, so I can ensure that Phocus leaves the white balance of the imported pictures 'as shot'? Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,
Selmar
