This would be a wonderful advantage for digital cameras except for
the fact that every review (in Amateur Photographer, UK) mentions the
extraneous noise which appears at higher ISOs (above 100 in some
cases). I refer to the middle-of-the-range cameras, as I have not
bothered to read about cameras costing over £1500 sterling ;-).

Luminous Landscape has a page in which the virtues of variable ISO

There are a couple of very nice shots with the Canon EOS1Ds and a
couple of long Canon lenses with telextender.

This is one of the two or three truly "killer" advantages DSLRs
have. Imagine in some future time, you set the shutter speed and
aperture exactly the way you want to for the perfect mix of DOF and
speed to capture the motion the "right" way. Then the camera set the
ISO to make it happen. In ideal case, it would be noise-less from
ISO 1 to ISO 6400. Yummmmm....
