There is only so much one can do with a small jpeg file before it starts looking worse than the original. IMHO of course.
Post your D7200 high ISO

Dont know about secrets
i often look at mine after posting and think what have you done to that probably going to be told i should but i cant work in layers,must be too thick.I have the CC subscription but only use Photoshop,open the raw image in ACR and nearly always click auto,i find it brings me close to what i want most of the time,then just move the sliders a bit mainly exposure and black,sometimes white balance.Then often into Photo shop and look at shadows and highlights,and smart sharpen,then back into ACR.
I now apply any NR using a brush only on the background and selectively adjust the exposure at the same time for different areas,sometimes part of the subject gets exposure adjustment as i can redo a bit of sharpening at the same time,then back into photo shop.
I now re-size and look at brightness and contrast,any cloning and unsharpmask.
Obviously i may do other things but thats the main things,with the D7200 unless there is a lot of white in the image if i am using high ISOs i tend to go for over exposure,yes i know you shouldn't but i think the sensors like it.
If you only have Elements you can wipe the noisy background with the blur tool.

Decided to try some ISO 12800 today but i cocked up,changed the auto ISO in my normal manual mode but forgot to change it in U1 and 2,this means the only 12800 i got was my car park test shot,here it is though and i will try again next time i go out.
Straight conversion and slight crop.
NR on background and smart sharpen on sign plus a little brightness/contrast

As you know very well though noise is only one area,there are other benefits from FX,going to push it a bit further out of interest.
Yes, I am aware of these things that you speak of, but since your thread is about high ISO on the D7200, that is what I'm commenting on.:indecisiveness:
Just thought it worth reminding others that may think ISO and noise is the only difference.
My high ISO on Dolly don't mean a thing now. My D750 just broke. Shutter failure. Will be making post soon in the D750 forum.
Sorry to hear that,are you sure its the camera and not the coffee maker
That seems to confirm what I read once. The algorithms are such that half of the file size goes to the most exposed quarter, 1 quarter of the file sizes to the rest of high exposed. That leaves little space (1 quarter) to register details in the shadows. So recuperating shadows is a bad idea generally.
Dam I miss the pine and Evening Grosebeaks I had a Redpol in the backyard a few days ago
