I'd estimate that 99% of our clients have never once done frame averaging. Likely because of complexity. If this feature works as-advertised I suspect 20% of our clients will now use frame averaging more than rarely.Other than as 'something new' to differentiate the product (beyond simply MP), it does seem rather pointless in the DB itself.
Having used Lujik's original Zero Noise, the technique is far better suited to post (i.e. big screen + cup of coffee + music), so if you're listening P1, just stick it in C1 where it belongs.
I suspect the very small minority who previously did frame averaging manually (in post) will continue to do so manually some or most of the time.
It's pretty rare that any camera introduces a technique that was utterly impossible before. More often a camera take a workflow/technique that was tedious, complicated, or otherwise undesirable, and makes it more practical and enjoyable to use.
But we can have differing opinions on this. Especially because right now we're talking about theory. I'll withhold firm judgement until I can actually play with the feature hands on!
