I thought you got tired of provoking fights here Richard?!!!! Too much Yang
and not enough Yin maybe?

 "DxOMark Sensor is composed of objective and repeatable measurements, but
the way they are aggregated is arbitrary!"

We have indeed arbitrarily chosen to balance landscape (Dynamic Range),
portrait (Color Sensitivity), and action photography (Low-Light ISO) equally
as we attempt to answer the needs of typical photographers. Depending on
your personal use of your camera, you may want to weight these measures
differently. For the sake of simplicity, we chose the simplest possible
combination as an average of all three use-cases
 **
*Disclaimer:** This dxomark review evaluates **only **the selected camera?s
RAW sensor performance metrics (i.e., Color Depth, Dynamic Range, and
Low-Light ISO), and should not be construed as a review of the camera?s
overall performance, as it does not address such other important criteria as
image signal processing, mechanical robustness, ease of use, flexibility,
optics, value for money, etc. While RAW sensor performance is critically
important, it is not the only factor that should be taken into consideration
when choosing a digital camera.*
