Select the folder where Neat Image should look for noise profiles to find one that matches the input image. This should be the topmost folder of all the subfolders with noise profiles to be checked during automatic matching.
By default, the PROFILES subfolder of Neat Image installation folder is used.
To automatically match profiles for the input image, Neat Image compares the device parameters of the image and profiles from the Matching device noise profile folder. Different parameters usually have to be matched with different priority. Using these controls, you can select the priorities of such parameters as Input device, ISO rate, Compression, Resolution, Sharpness, Exposure:
- Match - the parameter should match exactly;
- High - it is highly important that the parameter is very close or matches exactly;
- Low - it is preferable that the parameter is close or matches exactly;
- Ignore - the parameter is not important at all.
Select this option to automatically find the best matching profile when the input image is opened.
