Topaz just released an intriguing new product called JPEG to RAW A.I. As the name implies it’s designed to convert JPEG files to raw (DNG) files. RAW files contain a lot more information than their JPEG counterparts, allowing them much more versatility. They have an expanded tonal range so there is more shadow and highlight detail and they have a wider color gamut allowing smoother transitions of colors and broader capabilities to change them during processing. Raw files also retain more sharpness and detail. Until now if you only had a JPEG you were stuck with limited tonal range, color and sharpness.

Topaz allows you to try it for 30 days. If you find it useful and decide to buy it you can save 15% using the code JWOLFSON at checkout.

JPEG to RAW AI is highly effective at removing compression artifacts and recovering color detail. Note the additional fine detail in the top right and bottom of the image. There's also enhanced dynamic range as shown by deeper shadows and enhanced highlights. About File Outputs. The Topaz JPEG to RAW AI product is built to output files in either DNG or TIFF. File formats really matter, so we'll take the time here to explain how everything works and what type of file you can expect to result from processing in JPEG to RAW AI.

Bottom Line First

I can’t explain it but it seems to work, at least on the images I’ve tried so far. Somehow the artificial intelligence looks at what’s there and expands upon it. I’ve only tried a handful of images thus far but the resulting DNG image from a given JPEG has more acutance (sharpness) and more detail in the highlights and shadows. Also color transitions are smoother, especially with big adjustments to color such as luminance or saturation. I did this review with a pre-release version but I’m still fairly impressed. You can’t beat an orignial raw capture but this gives you some of the benefits of RAW when starting with only a JPEG.

A Challenging Image

I wanted to give this software a challenge so I started with image you see above. I made sure I used an image that is properly focused and sharp but the lighting is, well, awful. I was shooting straight into the sun with no exposure compensation so my main subject is in deep shadow with the white upholstery a deep gray. After creating the RAW/DNG from the JPEG I gave both versions an equivalent exposure adjustment so that measured skin tone values on her face match between the JPEG and RAW images. I made no other adjustment besides lightening exposure.

Using the software

Using JPEG to RAW A.I. is very straightforward (see screenshots below.) You simply drag and drop images to it or use the open command through the icon or pulldown menu. Because you can do batch processing it loads your images in rows. You can see a preview at 100 percent by clicking on the preview button on the lower left and a collapsible panel expands up from the bottom. Your processing options are just “Normal” and “High” noise and blur reduction. You can choose your destination folder along with adding prefixes and/or suffixes to the output filename. Format options include DNG and TIF/TIFF. For those unfamiliar with DNG it is the “universal” raw format akin, to say, a PDF for word processing documents. Most photo software handles DNG but if you prefer you can always use TIFF.

The processing time varies with the original JPEG but as an example it took 2 minutes 50 seconds to process a 15 MP image on my 2017 iMac. It makes intensive use of your computer’s GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) Although you can run it in the background you may notice jerkiness and delays. If you’re going to run several photos with the batch capabilities it’s probably best to let it run while you’re on a break from using your computer. Appcode 3 3 3 download free.

Conclusion

This is a compelling innovation from Topaz Labs. I’ve dreamed of a lot of products since I started as a full time photographer 30 years ago but must admit it never occurred to me that a company would figure out a way to make a RAW file from a JPEG. Even though I shoot most of my work in RAW, I have a lot of images that are JPEGs for various reasons. Based on what I’ve seen with this product so far, I’m anxious to try this with more of those JPEGs.

Considering its capabilities and assuming you have a use for it, I think JPEG to RAW A.I. is reasonably priced at a hundred bucks (coupon code JWOLFSON will get you 15% off.) It seems to increase tonal range and color gamut. And it does a good job with detail. I compared it to simply changing the same JPEG to 16 bit and ProPhoto color space but you still don’t get the same smoothness of gradation when making big saturation or contrast changes. You also get a better level of detail using JPEG to RAW A.I. No, it’s not as good as an original raw capture but it does improve the image a lot. I look forward trying it on more images but so far it’s pretty impressive.

Happy Shooting,
Joel

Edit JPEG as if you shot it in RAW. Use machine learning to convert JPEG to high-quality RAW for better editing. Prevent banding, remove compression artifacts, recover detail, and enhance dynamic range.
Fix artifacts, restore dynamic range, and recover detail
JPEG to RAW AI is highly effective at removing compression artifacts and recovering color detail. Note the additional fine detail in the top right and bottom of the image. There's also enhanced dynamic range as shown by deeper shadows and enhanced highlights.
Made possible by AI
There's normally no way of recovering lost detail. JPEG to RAW AI is currently the only machine-learning powered software capable of doing this.
Simple workflow
Whenever you would edit a JPEG, put it through JPEG to RAW AI first for best editing results. Standalone application for Mac + Windows that allows batch processing.
Constantly improving

Topaz Jpeg To Raw Ai 2 2 0 30

We're continually training our JPEG to RAW conversion model with more data, which makes it better the more time passes. You'll get the latest and greatest when the model improves.
Dynamic range
Your image loses significant dynamic range when it's converted to JPEG. JPEG to RAW AI helps you recover a portion of this lost dynamic range by bringing back lost shadow and highlight details. While you won't be able to completely missing details, it can work with even very small amounts of information. This allows you to be more aggressive with editing your photo's exposure or contrast. If you ever think that you've blown out a sky and you don't have the original RAW file, try running it through JPEG to RAW AI first.
Color space
Color space represets the range of color that is supported in your image. JPEG images are usually in the sRGB color space, which works great for web but less for printing and editing. When editing a photo in sRGB, adjusting saturation or vibrance will often reveal ugly color blotchiness.
You can prevent this from happening by running it through JPEG to RAW AI. JPEG to RAW's machine learning models expand the sRGB colorspace to ProPhoto RGB, which is even better than a regular RAW file! This works so well because there is usually enough information in at least one color channel for our models to reconstruct missing detail with a high level of preciseness. The larger resulting color space allows you to better edit saturation and vibrance without any visible artifacting.
Color depth
Color depth (also called bit depth) is how much color information the image can store. When editing an image with low bit depth, you will see color banding in smooth gradients like skies.An 8-bit JPEG only has 256 values per channel. Running that JPEG through JPEG to RAW AI will expand it to 65,532 values per channel. This will prevent posterization and banding when you adjust the contrast in your images.
Artifacts
You'll see visible compression artifacts in your image when editing highly compressed images. JPEG to RAW AI is exceptional at removing these artifacts while preserving natural image features: Artifacts won't be easily visible in high-quality JPEGs, but they can completely ruin an image if they are. They'll also get accentuated by post-processing, especially sharpening. Run your images through JPEG to RAW AI to ensure artifacts don't impact your workflow.
Detail level
JPEGs will often feature smoothed details due to a small sensor or heavy processing. For example, iPhone photos are heavily processed before being saved, which sometimes ends up removing a lot of image detail. JPEG to RAW AI helps you recover fine detail removed during the conversion process.
