Hello guys! I got a chance to dig around for a slightly noisier image than my last Ibis shot. EXIF data is all intact. And I can upload this file to whoever wants to have a crack at it. I\'ve included all my most basic PP stuff to illustrate IMHO, the limits of the 7D. I think with a little bit of NR, the images can come out acceptable for most good light conditions. Either that or I just have a particularly noisy 7D
Here is the original RAW file if you want to try out your PP skills!
5. RAW Sharpening settings
I\'m sure that Romy can comment more, but I immediately see a couple of very different settings from what he is doing.
His settings--
Sharpening = 0
Luminance NR = 25
Luminance Detail = 80
Luminance Contrast = 0
Color NR = 25
Color Detail = 50
First, notice that he is doing no sharpening via the raw converter. With your sharpening settings, I would think that you are sharpening the noise before converting. Also note that some of his noise reduction settings are significantly different from the settings your are using.
Also, it would appear that your shot started out about 1/2 stop under exposed, and boosting the exposure and brightness would also be enhancing the noise.
