thats ln(10^6.7)/ln(2) = 22.257 bits, that's unheard of for camera sensors I have looked up, so I assume the reported values are "gamma" compressed before digitization.
Would you have interest in characterizing or collaborating on characterizing the exact compression function for the V1 and V2? Relevant literature seems to be Steve Mann's comparametric equations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparametric_equation
(I am interested in high dynamic range, and high monochromatic or color bit depth for an experiment, which will progress much faster if I can start out with a higher dynamic range and bit depth sensor, I will need to oversample to observe a phenomenon, and every bit of increased depth a sensor has compared with another sensor would mean the experiments can be run 4 times as fast...)
Do we know the "gamma" curves, i.e. numerical intensity value as a function of light collected proportional to the number of photons?
67dB = 6.7B => brightest over softest intensity = 10^6.7 = 5 000 000
