  When you pull a sensor down from a very high native ISO of 3200 for example to 400 it is true that your lower ISOs compromise the image. I.e. dodgy highlights, banding, etc. We see this on the low light kings FS100, 1D C. This is a problem waiting for a fix. Of course what you describe with F32, high shutter speed, stack of NDs is not the answer and you're right to point the issue out. This sensor probably isn't a general purpose one!   Red Dragon is rated at 2500 native I think.   I think some stuff is already looking too plastic and too clean. I actually WANT a bit of grain. But there's no denying how excited I am about the low light possibilities.

  Canon know they need to do something to shore up this end of the market and DSLR video. It has been a bit of a disaster. Their overall profits have plunged 40% and that is mainly due to the low end of the market.

I don't know but all I have to say is... This is the third or fourth time I've seen your girlfriend in one of these videos and I'm mesmerized by her. She is sooo cute! ;-)

Putting those into a 4:4:4 space along with 16 bIt (or 32 bit float) in AE really helps with the banding, stairstepping.
