After having run the latest updates from Topaz Labs on their Studio software versions 1 and 2, the Precision Detail filter now mysteriously applies an effect to the image before making any adjustments.

I opened a support request back on August 6th earlier this year regarding an issue when using Precision Detail filter in Topaz Studio Two. If someone can let me know how to do this I will post them later.

Every image that I have tested undergoes a change just by adding Precision Detail filter with default values, however some images suffer less than others, but all look worse with the filter added and I haven’t been able to adjust settings to get any improvement. The level of distortion seems to be imaged based. I have supplied Topaz with images, screen recordings etc. It seemed better in 2.0.11 but then got worse again in 2.0.12. I submitted a bug report for 2.0.10 and, eventually, Topaz managed to see the same effect.
