Low light & noise
EOS C70
6.4 µm pixels
8.85 MP on a super 35 sensor, ISO up to 25,600
EOS C80
6.7 µm pixels
19 MP on a full frame sensor, ISO up to 102,400
Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
- Photons to Photos: dynamic range vs ISO ↗Photographic dynamic range measured at every ISO, bodies on one chart
- Photons to Photos: noise vs ISO ↗Read noise at every ISO from lab tests: lower is cleaner in the shadows
- DPReview studio scene ↗The same scene shot by each camera at the ISO you pick, side by side

- Low-light video tests ↗Real-world high-ISO footage on YouTube
