First, thanks Vlad for your previous answers--very helpful. Second: it's often said that noise reduction can be more harmful than helpful (not NI, of course :D ). My question is, how often do you experts just noise reduce locally, let's say to non-detailed areas like sky, large shadow areas etc? Is this program so good that reducing globally is usually just fine? And lastly: when do you use this in the workflow: early, or at the end of the workflow...after resizing for printing and just before output sharpening?

Thanks
