Topazlabs now launched a new website showing off the features of their AI apps

Topaz recently released the brand new Photo Ai 3.0 (click here). Now it has also completely revamped its website so that you can get a better overview of all the features. Take a look at the presentation pages: Photo Ai, Video AI, GigaPixel.
One more related news: PetaPixel tested all most known upscalers and claims GigaPixel AI is the best:
Overall, I was most impressed with Gigapixel AI. The results for the low-resolution file are especially excellent, far surpassing my expectations. It produces excellent levels of detail with minimal (or no) additional artifacts, even when going beyond 2x. I also enjoyed the UI of Gigapixel AI more than the other programs. It was clean, modern, and simple to use with an ideal way of seeing the preview of the upscaled images.
Confirmed: New Panasonic announcement in May
Finally I got some good news from a trusted source. But it’s not clear if this will be a MFT, L-mount or fixed lens camera. He told me this:
- One new Lumix camera will be announced in May
- It will be a completely “new kind of model”
The source has not yet provided any details about what this camera will be. Anyway stay tuned…I might be able to get some more details soon ;)
