>>4243112Not him but there are three explanations for what's presented in these links, versus dpreview's exposure equalized test scene (all the cameras are shot with the same ISO, shutter, and aperture and jpeg and raw versions of the image are generated from two lightroom classic presets - if one takes a darker or brighter picture than the reference camera [a phase one iq180] exposure is increased or decreased in lightroom classic, so it is the "correct" ISO assuming the sensor is ISO invariant within a stop or so - but colors are only as correct as camera standard and lens field curvature can defocus parts of the chart, so you shouldn't use the tool to compare colors or lens sharpness)

2: ISO is labeled a full stop lower. These are charted against ISO setting. after all. So IRL you'd never notice a benefit and never notice an issue, you would just raise your ISO until you got the aperture/shutter speed you wanted.
3: Photostophotons is just wrong, or his SNR measurement method doesn't correspond to how humans actually view noise as impacting their photos in which case he's not wrong just totally useless.
4, not an option: Dpreview is CHEATING! But they really aren't, you can download these raw files yourself. I did with the G9 and Z50. They're legit. Panasonic = 1 stop darker.
I have included a common and affordable (~$1300-1500 used) full frame camera as a standard frame of reference. Go to this site yourself and try some sony cameras. And laugh at how every single sony camera, literally every single one, is noisier looking than their nikon counterpart, despite p2p suggesting a better performance fucking KEK.
