Dxomark score is calculated at the base ISO and lowlight score (for A77) is calculated at ISO 800
Any curve at ISO 3200 has no affect on dxomark score.

Funny thing is that when you look at real (jpg) images of the alpha 77 at imaging resource or dpreview they seem considerably noiser with blocked up shadows compared to the 7d, D7000, not to mention the 5D Mark II. That leaves only two explanations: Either sony have messed up their jpg processing completly or dxo just continues to prove the irrellvance of their measurments for practical applications. (I presume the latter is the case). In particular the statement that the alpha comes extremly close to the 5D mark II seems rather ridiculous in view of the real life images floating around on the web.
