I read
http://www.darktable.org/2012/12/profiling-sensor-and-photon-noise/ and
want to create noise profile images with a Pentax KP.

1 step ISO, 1/2 steps or 1/3 steps? Smaller steps will produce a lot of

So it should not be a normal sharp nightshot, but something out of
focus, eg a street lamp in the night?

So I have to change the camera to RGB? Are sRGB *and* RGB photos wanted?
