Oh, before I forget... Brainiac: I assume you shot RAW? If so, what converter did you use? And what FW does the 5D2 have?
I will have to do some further testing, but it seems ACR/LR has some troubles with 5D2 RAW files after the FW 1.0.7 update: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/735917 (I hope to receive some feedback on this).
sometimes i wonder if ACR doesn\'t do deep, deep, deep shadow NR even with slider at 0 to a larger degree for the older cams like the 20D,40D, Mkiii\'s than the 50D and 5dmkii.
i was processing some ISO200 shot in HTP no less from my 40D and i could pull the deep shadows under bushes up and up and up and magically never see much fine grain at all (then again, my 40D, did measure somewhat anomalously to have exceptionally low levels of read noise at the owest two ISOs compared to other measured 40D, i measured mine to have less read noise per pixel than 20D,50D and even 5dmkii) and the extent to which i can do this seems hard to believe.
i should test with some other converters....
anyway i did actually measure my 40D to have lower read noise at the very lowest ISOs, per pixel of course, than the 5dmkii although the 5dmkii rapidly started to beat it, I think even by ISO400 per pixel read noise, nevermind per image.
