Doesn't using NR on a sample of a hi-ISO shot defeat the purpose? Not a good smaple image anyway as it's flat and lacks dynamic tonal range.

I remember the days that I spent thousands of hours in the darkroom. It is OK to have noise if it can be processed, then, unless you are concern with time and money. It is a good exercise, some samples are more difficult to process than others.

True but it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean.

In other words a good test can also be what one can get out of a file as well. Both the original and processed versions should be showed though.

It is kind of hard to show the original raw file.
