Several days before ,at a birding session,I triggered wrongly my camera while I tried to increase ISO number. The result was an underexposed shot with much noise in it which I used in DxO PureRaw 4 versus Topaz DeNoise, versus On1NoNoise.All images were processed with Affinity,having the same parameters(including temperature and tint).Below,You see the original underexposed shot

 DRC6375 A

First one seems the most natural. The colors of the second one are strange and the third seems overly sharpened. The last one is quite mushy.

Of course the PureRaw is the best,Topaz is extremly strange,at first I thought I had something wrong,so I repeated but the result was the same.On1 is pretty close to PureRaw but too sharp(at On1 there is possibility to change the sharpness manually  but I did not do.I let On1 do it.Regarding Affinity noise reduction it is very weak.I used and use PureRaw but in the past(several years before) I used On1.

Thank You
