Venus III
In addition to the features claimed for the Venus II, the Venus III engine used in the Lumix DMC-FZ8 and other cameras claims enhanced noise reduction at high ISO numbers and lower power consumption.
There have been detailed complaints that the Venus III noise reduction is achieved by smudging the fine image details, and that even in raw mode there is a significant reduction of noise accompanied by loss of fine detail, giving results worse than could be obtained by reducing the noise in a totally raw file by processing with appropriate computer software.
