Newbie needing some advice.

This is probably an unusual question, and situation. I was a cine enthusiast for many years, and took many hours of super 8 footage. I have now transferred this all to digital ( MP4 files on the PC) the way I transferred the footage was using my own set-up where I projected the film directly onto the CMOS of a Samsung NX1000. The lens is detachable on these cameras. I used a lens inserted into the projector, and various lens attachments to keep all the equipment steady, and to avoid setting up each time. Of course super 8 film has a 4:3 ratio, although I did experiment with scope too. I captured the film using the full HD 1920 X 1080 setting on the camera, this of course meant I would need to crop the video footage later. I was very happy with the end result, and then came across Neat video, and always wanting to improve the footage before burning to Blu-ray, I have been using the trial download to see how it works. I would like to ask
1. Would it be better to build a noise profile on the film, before cropping ? or after ?
2. would I achieve better results by making a noise profile from the Samsung NX1000 ?
3. I am very conscious of not wanting to make the footage too smooth or lose its cine look, so would using the other sharpness filters result in doing this ?
Thank you to anyone giving me any help, Frank [/img]
