Where does it say that it's still preview i see TESTED in bold? Someone enlighten me?

It is about the photographer not the camera.

I'd rather get the canon that fills all of my needs

As opposed to...

Who cares what the DxO says, or if the camera you own can interpet the "matrix" code better than another? This is stupid. If your camera can perform well enough to please the human eye, without worrying about numbers and patterns that don't mean anything, why complain? Just go out and take pictures. If you can shoot in manual mode properly, you shouldn't be worrying about DxO stats.

Just to clarify, you ARE talking photographic needs, right?

81>79 No worries... ;D

With d900, when they reach their up scale limit, they will have to reevaluate all the numbers so it will fall down, most probably

Wait if it is all about the photographer then why do you need the new Canon that fills all your needs? You are still you. Just stick with what you have.

Now you ruined my calculations
I was thinking: 3.5 years 2 point increase => 31.5 more years: 18 points increase which means 99!

So by the year 2044 Canon would have an excellent camera and we would stop complaining... ;D

I'm afraid that year after year it's more difficult to increase by a single point. But don't worry - no matter what silicon d900 will have it certainly would go beyond 100, so no chance for Canon. Sorry.

Wait till they really get good at growing diamond in labs. Diamond will replace silicon, and when that happens 100k iso will look like 100 iso. Diamond is the most conductive material known to man!

No, the DxO scale is not percentage based. It has no upper end so a camera can actually get a score of 103, etc.

Good news then. Great marketing gizmo - "the first sensor over 100"

I thought they are semiconductors or insulators? Especially those clean.
