In today's tutorial we're going over free noise reduction in DaVinci Resolve 16 and how it compares to the paid version. Download Davinci Resolve for Free: blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

Less Compressed Comparison: vimeo.com/434523560/a6effd218b

Notes:
I'm gonna be honest when uploaded to Youtube, I'm pretty impressed with how well the free method compares. However I recommend checking out the vimeo video link for a more accurate representation of what you'll see on your computer. Youtube compression strikes again.

So if you're in a pinch I'd say this can help get the job done for sure. If the softness bothers yah you could boost the midtone detail or bump up the sharpening using this method: youtube.com/watch?v=M_9epKYLW1g&t=3s
