Editors’ Review

This photo-editing tool seems better suited for technical shooters than everyday shutterbugs. Nevertheless, Cleanerzoomer's interface, while certainly not beautiful, is simple to use. Toolbar icons provide access to all major editing functions, while a handful of the most important ones get huge buttons on the Instrument Browser. The lion's share of the main window is reserved for previewing images, but you can always zoom in or out if you want a different view. Power users can process files via the command-line interface. Unlike many standard image editors, Cleanerzoomer doesn't include tools for cropping or rotating images or removing red-eye. Nor does it provide effects or filters. Instead, it focuses on cleaning up the technical aspects of your photos, providing features for removing JPEG noise and fixing artifacts. You can fine-tune the parameters of each editing tool by using sliders. For example, the Nova Sharpen feature lets you adjust the threshold, the maximum smoothing diameter, and the difference correction of the effect. We appreciate the program's ready-made presets (for instance, one for blurry photos) and its ability to save numerous settings in profiles. Seasoned photographers with an eye for detail likely will find Cleanerzoomer a welcome addition to their arsenal of editing applications.

It shines, but not for beginners
khazad_dumJune 3, 2010
Pros
A pro product, with a lot of things to tweak (besides the presets, of course) can produce astonishing results, particularly the resampling (zoom) capabilities are impressive - every half-a-pixel is used and turned into a detail!
Cons
Not simple to use, the presets require tweaking for each particular camera, the use of some controls are hard to understand.
Summary
Excellent quality, but slow
ThorinDwalinsonJanuary 27, 2010
Pros
Nice noise reduction and excellent image enlargement capabilities, even better than GenuineFractals! Good JPEG blockiness and moire suppression. Can be tweaked for toughest noises where other tools totally fail. Color profiles and Exif support.
Cons
Overall slow processing, quite tolerable in resizing but annoying in noise reduction (about 1 min for 6 mpx image), no RAW support, batch processing only in the professional version. Also the optionally installed GetBack utility has not much use.
Summary
If you want the best quality noise reduction and digital resizing Cleanerzoomer is for you, if you're in need for speed better stick to NoiseNinja or NeatImage. Resizing capabilities is truly the best on the market. The price and the no-restrictions trial version is also a good thing to test out everything you want.
Free Trial with a Catch

Summary
I decided to see if this product really did the job it claims it could do, clean up jpeg artifacts. Well when you download a trial version you would figure that they would allow you to do a few pictures without a catch. The catch is after they fix the picture they put the name of the software all over the picture stating to remove text buy the product. Unfortunately the text is in many areas where you are trying to test the cleanup process. I'm all for Try it and Buy it but for goodness sake allow us to try it without limitations.

Developer’s Description

By Stratopoint Software

Reduce noise and enlarge digital images.

Cleanerzoomer is an advanced image processing tool designed for reduction of different kinds of noises and artifacts as well as for sharpening and sharp-edge enlargement of images. Its specially developed noise removal algorithm carefully takes away only noise, keeping the image as sharp as it was, while the sharpen algorithm produces very satisfying image enlargement results that are nicely balanced between art-like sharp-edged and more natural look. The noise removal algorithm does not require training on detail-free areas of the image.
