I think iso 12800 is more than good enough for web atleast:
Absoultely. Looking at 100% crops I\'d say the 5D2 is at least 2 stops better than the 5D. Once you take into account that it has twice as many pixels, that amounts to a 3 stop gain in sensitivity which is pretty impressive. Probably in practice I\'d end up using mostly ISO 1600 and ISO 3200 in low light, but the 5D2 is dramatically lower noise at those settings than on the 5D.
For me, the most remarkable of your samples is the ISO 1600 because I wouldn\'t hesitate to blow it up to 16x24. Being able to shoot for art prints at ISO 1600 with the 24-105/4IS will create some remarkable new opportunities because in many situations I\'ll be able to leave my tripod at home.
