We present a convergence rate analysis of the Rudin-Osher-Fatemi (ROF) denoising problem for two different discretizations of the total variation. The first discretization is the well-known isotropic total variation that suffers from a blurring effect in a special diagonal direction. We prove that in the setting corresponding to this direction, the discrete ROF energy converges to the continuous one in O(h^2/3). The second total variation is based on Raviart-Thomas fields and achieves a O(h) convergence rate for the same quantity under some standard hypotheses.
