There's an awful lot of nostalgia here - if the S5 is anything like the D200, which I owned for years, then it certainly does not have the amazing DR or low light performance suggested earlier in this thread. The D200 was fine, until you passed ISO 400 ... a cheap entry level dslr today would eat it alive in every way.

I must be missing something, my English not being as good as my Italian but if not wrong you don't own an S5Pro, is that correct? 🤔

I'm basing this on the fact I owned the D200 and someone back there said it was basically the same camera - so maybe ask them why they made the comparison?

Looking at DXOmark confirms to me that it doesn't even stand up to lower end dslr today.   The ISO performance is paltry and the DR is worse than a Sony A68
