I\'ve bee around FM for a long time and I cannot recall any other time where people expect a drastically underexposed shot to retain detail in shadows. Here is a crazy idea....become a competant photographer and nail your exposure. You\'ll be able to comfortably shoot to ISO 12800 (TWELVETHOUSANDEIGHTHUNDRED) without banding in any area of the photo.

But it won\'t help. Haven\'t read the thread, but I expect that the usual subjects have already probably jumped all over you for a range of things and defamed you and Canon in the usual interesting ways. Few who use these cameras to actually make photography worry about this \"issue\" at all. Others, for whom gear itself seems to be more the focus, can become quite worked up about it.
Welcome to the club. :-)

(For the record, if you go looking for noise banding in certain areas of certain images from a 5D2 and no doubt other cameras you can find some on rare occasions when you inspect your 100% crops on the computer. Whoopie... )
It\'s funny how you always so casually insult anyone who mentions DR or banding and bring out all sorts of star man arguments, etc. and then you always complain about the DR/banding people being trolls or antagonists.... just sayin\'.
