banding will show up. This sort of scenario is pretty extreme so in

David, that's valid assumption methinks.
You see, when my *istD feels the batter is getting depleted, the
noise levels (notably blue channel noise levels) go visibly up.

No problem Scott. It is pretty simple in fact, cameras regarded as
