    This could work out if you'd manage to reduce the chroma noise. --Plozessor 19:47, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
     Oppose Unfortunately  Not done --Plozessor 15:32, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
     Support IMO Good enough for QI. --Palauenc05 16:35, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
     Support. Good image and good quality. -- Spurzem 21:20, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose for now. Uploaded version with reduced chroma noise. But a much better result could be achieved if the raw format were available, because the photo presented is clearly too compressed. NeatImage has also reduced these compression artifacts somewhat, but you can't do magic with it either. A pity, because it's a great action shot. --Smial 11:50, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose The photo is still rather noisy and some of the woman's fingers look peculiar. The image was taken at ISO 1,600, which is the highest ISO of this camera, and with f/2.8. So DOF is quite low anyway. Stronger noise reduction may lead to even less sharpness or the need for excessive sharpening resulting in artifacts. I am sorry, but it might be really difficult or impossible to repair this photo. --Robert Flogaus-Faust 19:22, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
Hello Robert, do you think, that you could take a better photo of a comparable scene? This is a question I nearly always ask myself before declaring a photo that someone else took a failure. Best regards -- Spurzem 19:02, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
I'm not Robert, but I think I could achieve a way better result from this picture's raw file. --Plozessor 19:12, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
Lothar, the image noise is not so bad that it cannot be reduced to an acceptable level. I don't expect a high-ISO action photo to have as little noise as a static subject, nor do I expect a depth of field from the front lens to the horizon. Unfortunately, the excessive JPEG compression prevents a suitable reworking. Irfanview reports 79% jpg quality, which is really very low and you can see this in the JPG blocks even in normal view without zooming in. --Smial 23:40, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
Hallo Smial, that may all be true. Nevertheless, I always get annoyed when I see how photographic junk is hyped up as a quality image and really successful, appealing photos are dismissed. My question whether the juror feels capable of taking a comparable picture is certainly justified. Certainly better things are possible today in terms of camera technology than what the image under discussion is based on. But in my opinion this should not be decisive for the evaluation of a photo. Best regards -- Spurzem 14:42, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
