If you keep the in-camera JPEG files at "0" sharpening, you can easily apply
noise-reduction afterwords--if at all. +2 sharpening will accentuate the
noise and then you end up with nasty wormy artifacts or worse, a general
state of "this image is junk". With both my digital cameras, I can shoot at
much higher ISOs and do in-camera JPEG. I take these files, and can sharpen
them with my own editor with or without noise-reduction (usually, just
chroma noise reduction for me) and end up with results as good as if I shot
RAW and converted in the computer.
One thing Olympus has really done right--more right than most
companies--especially the big "C", is that the in-camera JPEGs really are
usable for professional purposes.
