FZ200 NR and sharpening - my theory and experiments to date-Part 1

By the way, I could tell some areas were processed differently than others.  In fact the eves of my house the noise looked the same as my NR/sharp -2 images and I could tell more sharpening was used in other parts of the image.  Less in some more in others.  Brighter images looked better but still see that bokeh noise artifact.  Plus with a little bit of sharpening on my NR/sharp -2 images of the same shot the detail looked the same and actually better because the grass was cleaner and more defined.  Less smudging.  But this is all at 100%.  I am nitpicking.  Kind of crazy nitpicking so much at 100% but I guess if you are going to crop these its good to know what works best.
