You forgot to mention color banding with lcd lighting using silent shutter.

Yes, it does. I find your statement humorous......I shoot weddings, portraits, events using a dslr. So, if you're not shooting with a mirrorless, you images are not good enough?

I shoot a lot of low light event images, i.e., theater, ballroom dancing, etc with 24mp Nikon d750 and use autoISO, spot metering with manual. Proper exposure gives me less noise and changing my metering makes a huge difference from matrix/evaluative vrs spot/center-wieghted can cut the iso in half. This isn't based on theory but actual experience and printing images. I also know that a pro level Nikon d4 with 16mp can handle a much higher iso (well above the 6400 where I try to cap at). So, what does this tell me? It's the density and size of each pixel along with the subsequent camera signal to noise processing. Bottom line, I'm not a rocket socientist but know you can print huge, very clean, noise free images with 16mp. The more megapixels you cram into a sensor, the more light you will probably need. However, practice and see what works best. Shooting a daytime landscape with 61mp isn't the same as shooting inside eventws, with low and crappy or even worse yet, constantly changing lights which you'll find in ballroom dancing. Here's a cropped theater shot in very low light. no noise.

Thank you!

What is very surprising about the first shot - Nikon d750, Nikon 24-70 2.8 nonVR, Nikon sb700 flash for fill, shot around 2-3 pm. I was editing in Lightroom and accidently pushed a slider to the max and bingo, I got very lucky. It became a signed print and sold. Donated to a church gift shop as well. Thanks for the positive feedback.

Taken during the day. Second pic is just another version/edit.
