So this means that if a camera actually has a higher dynamic range
than another camera, the ISO would tend to be lower than the other camera?
I'm still not sure I understand how DXO determines the exposure
with this method in the first place, only how the results are interpreted.
Therefore, I am assuming they don't meter at all, only set the camera
at a specific ISO and measure the sensor range, then derive the
equivalent ISO. That means how the metering systems works is not
taken into account relative to actual use.
