I’ve been following the PerfectRAW almost since the beginning and I must say they are very serious about it. A lot of time they spend working on noise reducton features that the software would provide. Combining interpolation algorythms with different techniques of denoising is what will make PerfectRAW a really good solution to problems that high ISO images encounter - noise. The AFD method of interpolaton already provides a really good possibility of solving the noise problem without affecting the texture. But combined further with other applications it may result in a noise free image and good preservness of texture.
Here’s how:
