All you have to do with DxO mark is ignore the "scores" and look at the measurements, which tell a pretty accurate story when it comes to noise (though it does ignore PRNU). Comparing camera JPEGs is by far the least accurate way to compare sensors. | |

Because maybe the difference we see on the current pictures is caused by a more aggressive reduction inside the Canon camera. If one applies enough external processing, the effect of the on chip reduction should be overplayed (unless they result in a truely better final result). | |
