With the 5d4 helping to reveal more information about the dual pixel sensors could there be a new dual iso 2.0?

Please forgive my ignorance on this subject, it might be wishful thinking but the dual pixel sensors I believe might have some potential if Magic Lantern could write firmware to get a grip on that.

Dual-pixel might be interesting to be used as dual-iso system, but the problem might be that in normal still-photo Canon uses both sensor-pixels to produce the shot.

I cannot be sure of that, but atleast Tony Northrup tested Dual.Pixel with High ISO's and noticed that when shifting the sharpness also noise levels increased. That would indicate, that either of the pixels-matrixes are very noisy by themselves, but when used combined the noise levels can be reduced.

If it is like that, that idea wouldn't work due to the increase of noise significantly :I


But looking forward for 5D4 ML Firmware, it worked very well on 5D3 - Would also like AdobeRAW to support Magic Lantern Raw.
