Canon 5D MkII NR Settings

[DeanNewman]

For anyone shooting the Canon 5D MKII, what in-camera NR strength (standard, low, strong) are you using for high-ISO shooting?

I shoot in RAW mode so the camera NR setting doesn't affect the output.

Arash,
Interesting. According to the owner's manual, page 56, High ISO speed noise reduction (C. Fn II-2) are applied to RAW files but not to the .jpg preview on the LCD monitor. Am I confused?

Dean, NR is always applied to JPEGs, RAW is just RAW data from sensor it is not an image yet, you can apply NR later in post.
