Profile set for Nikon System 1 S1 (from very rusty NI user)

Here's a link to the 2.8 MB .zip file for the Nikon System 1 S1 camera with embedded noise examples:

I used the "batch profiler", and I'm not all that confident this very rusty NI user did things correctly. Please let me know if there are appropriate improvements to make.
Here's the contents of the readme:

Nikon System 1 S1 noise profiles
by Lynn Allan, February 27, 2014
A set of profiles for Nikon System 1 S1 for uncompressed 16-bit TIF files, saved from the RAW .nef files by Adobe ACR 8.3.
The profiles were built using shots of the Calibration Target on a LCD monitor for the following full size RAW 3872x2592, using ProPhoto RGB and 16-bit.
For each file format and image size above, shots for all of the full stop ISO's and 1/3rd stop ISO's from 100 to 6400 were made and used to build profiles.
From ISO 100 to 200, there are 1/6th stop ISO's, accomplished using Auto-ISO. Note that it is possible to get 1/6th stop intermediates from ISO 100 to ISO 6400.
RAW was used, so my understanding is that camera settings for Sharpness, Contrast, Saturation, Noise reduction, White balance don't apply.
Very little post processing was applied to the RAW .NEF files.
The ACR 8.3 sliders for Basic, Clarity, Vibrance, Saturation, Noise, Sharpness were zero'ed. Lens corrections was disabled. Process Version 2012 was used.
My understanding is that a profile made from a .tif using ACR 8 would be equivalent to making a profile from a .nef RAW file opened in PhotoShop.
The base exposure was ISO 100, f5, 1/4th second with the 30-100-VR lens at 83mm, out of focus. ISO was varied by changing the shutter speed while taking pictures of the calibration target on a LCD monitor, so that the option of Auto-ISO would change the ISO.
The file-naming excluded the WB(#) clause. The Quality Factor was 96 for all profiles, so that was left off the file-naming.
These profiles should be good for both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of NeatImage.
They are probably suitable for other Nikon System 1 cameras with a 10.1 megapixel sensor.
Based on guidance from the NITeam, the noise samples are included in the profiles, which makes them larger.
