Over the weekend I went to Harry Potter's Studio Tour here in the UK. I attach three photographs of that visit. Nothing special about the images, except possibly their quality.
They were taken on a Canon G7X MkII, with the following settings ISO 5000, F6.6 for the first two and F9 for the last; speed setting were 30th, 25th 20th respectively.
For post-processing I used DxO PhotoLab 4 using their new DeepPRIME, followed up with use of Topaz Sharpen AI.
I for one am quite impressed with the clarity of the results at such a high ISO setting (5000).
I would be interested in any other comments.

Very nice. Imagine trying to do that with film fifty years ago.

Very nicely rendered. It would have been a long exposure at ASA 50 back in the day! The new tools do expand the capability of getting hand-held images, and the treatment in post did a wonderful job, although I think that a couple of the bright whites may have been blown out - probably because of the reduced dynamic range at ISO 5000. Excellent work. Please stay well and keep on sharing.

Very nice shots - the G7 (and your skillful processing ) really came through!

I am also a user of DxO PhotoLab but haven’t upgraded to their ‘4’ version. Can’t make my mind up if it’s worth it? I would be interested in your thoughts. (I have found the software complex but astounding in its capabilities.)

I have been using PhotoLab for many years (even before it was renamed PhotoLab, from DxO Optic (I think)) and am a committed user.
I am still trying out version 4, and so far have been impressed with DEEPPrime, as my post illustrates.
I do a fair bit of "less than ideal" light and "dark" photography so DEEPPrime looks suited to me.
