It looks good at 2:1 - but that means it is too smooth at 1:1 or smaller. I think the NR was excessive on the left. This is at base ISO (100) and on the left is 20 NR and the right I changed it to zero. I've always liked 2:1 for viewing sharpness and noise settings because it's easier to see, and you go just a bit too far to "visibly crunchy" and then it tends to look right at 1:1. Now though after looking at this discussion and several daylight shots, I am wondering if why I liked texture so much is that it put back some of the over-smoothing that my default noise reduction was removing. Seemingly irrelevant comment: I liked texture when it came out a lot. Yet at present I just use the same default value unless I notice (as in a tight crop, or faces in shadow) more noise than usual. My work tends to fall into either night/indoor sports, or daylight sports, so end up in groups of either extreme - high ISO, or low ISO. Does this post-date the process you describe of applying more for higher ISO? Victorias comment implies that Adobe changed the algorithm to be ISO sensitive.
