Okay so today I shot a project on the cam to test it for real. A music video with some dark setups as well so I was curious to see what would happen.
I was able to stay around iso 250 for the darker setups and had just enough light to not cause any problems.
Here is a link to some stills (just extended video lut):

I must say though... the colors out of this camera are so so good. I think (personally) even nicer than Alexa 35 standard lut if Im honest (shot a tv show with A35 recently so can compare a bit). Skincolors are also fantastic.
Does this mean the banding issue is not a problem? Well.. not really? I mean its still a thing that needs to be looked at, and if possible should be fixed/corrected. I'd be scared to use it as an A-cam for doc or event work. But if you can control the lighting, this camera sure is something special.
Still gonna keep mailing tech for updates and possible fixes though
