Interesting. I was expecting both sharpening and noise reduction to be higher. My high ISO shots are not as sharp as this. But I suspect it has more to do with my camera technique than post processing.
One thing I have discovered that has helped my results is an article I read on expose-to-the-right. I found that it does make a noticeable difference in reducing noise. If I set the exposure as high as I can without clipping then it results in less noise than what I get with a normal exposure. Then I correct exposure back down to normal in LR. What I haven't tried yet is to compare a normally exposed photo with a higher exposure and higher ISO photo.
Greg,
I did sharpen again and applied NR too in photoshop after I converted from RAW in LR. Just in case you missed it. I think the subject is pretty important too, shots like the one I posted, with letters and failry high contrast details, are easier for the sharpening algorithms to do a good job with, at least that's my impression. Shoots of trees in the night, like in Martin's shots above, are more difficult to deal with I think. Take a similar shot and try my setting if you have time and let me know how it went. To be sure it's not something you're doing wrong, put the camera on a desk or something so there's no shake at all.
Yes I've heard about that technique, but I haven't experimented with it yet.
