But in which terms then?
Btw., the cool thing - at least in theory, I still have to wait to find out if it actually is cool - with Arsenal is, you do the multi exposure in the field and come home with just one RAW instead a solid pack of fat RAW-files to download, backup and spend time in post. Doubtful if the results would be better.
The other cool side, as far as I could hope for: It doesn't matter much at which aperture you like to do "longtime bulb" shot. In theory 1000 shots of 1/1000 are giving the same result as 1 shot at 1 sec. I just mention "silent shutter in LiveVIew", which is a novelty with Nikon (but not with Fujifilm or Sony). That means no mechanical wear involved...
Also, no longer the problem of filter holders which are not light-tight, or filters which can reflect incoming light or increase aperture flares...
Until today I haven't thought about this advantages, so thanks for keeping the wish for ISO 6 upright. The longer I think about the more downsides I find - but not a single benefit. You cannot lower the voltage for the sensor ubless you like to risk read-out-errors. The problem with sensor heat and long exposures still exists and you will constantly have to work with a tripod.
