Noise Ninja standalone application for Mac (Intel and PowerPC)

COMPATIBILITY: This version of Noise Ninja runs as a standalone application on Mac OS X, on both Intel and PowerPC Macs. It can also be used as an external editor for Adobe Lightroom, iPhoto, and other image suitable applications (see below). If you use Photoshop, we recommend that you download the Photoshop plug-in version of Noise Ninja, available here (Intel Mac) or here (PowerPC Mac).

LICENSING: Unlocking the standalone version of Noise Ninja requires at least a Home Standalone or Pro Standlone license. See the purchase page for details. You may use the software without a license but it will run in trial mode where images are marked with a grid pattern when you save them.
