Nex F3 Noise Reduction Question

Hi Everyone:

For years I've shot APS-c and FF bodies, but only this week have I owned anything Sony.  I picked up an Nex F3 (great deal) and am playing around with it.  For my tastes, I prefer to shoot Raw and PP noise later with 3rd-party software.

My question is this: Is NR applied to the F3 Raw file?   I ask, because it appears as though this is the case.  Would appreciate any help I can get--thanks in advance.
