Another overheating "solution"

It is same post I referenced.
I spotted this relative to potential use of Aptina's Dual Gain Conversion in the a6300:
The A6300 uses Aptina's Dual Gain Conversion
What is the source of this information?
All I see is same source - http://blog.kasson.com/?p=13723 and no official info at all.
It is not necessary dual gain at all, it can be some advanced noise reduction kicking in.
@Vitaliy: there is some interpolation starting at ISO 12,800. Not sure if it can be called RAW noise reduction, since the visual noise continually increases, and it matches the A6000's SNR. The A6300 uses Aptina's Dual Gain Conversion, basically giving the camera two base ISOs: 100 and 400. Seems like that's most apparent in DR, where it starts walking away from other cameras at 400.
And as above, the A6300 beats out the NX500 in all DXO charts except by a hair at ISO 100. DXO is too dependent on resolution in their scoring, and not enough on the overall results of their charts.

It seems what all that we have is strong noise reduction in raw images.
DXO's "scoring" is terrible. Wait for the graphs to be released.

Not expecting new shipments of all Sony ILCE until late July or August
Huh
And you still need this:
Though it keeps the same 24-megapixel resolution, the Sony A6300's APS-C sensor is completely new, with a similar copper wiring-based design that we saw on the Sony A7R II. Not only does this help the camera's performance with faster sensor readout, it also improves the signal-to-noise ratio, which results in better noise performance. Sony A6300 produces excellent, highly detailed images at lower ISOs, as well as shows improved high ISO performance compared to its already well-regarded A6000 predecessor.
