ISO 100 vs 160 with Magic Lantern + Technicolor Cinestyle

So I performed a test between ISO's to see how they would fair in the video below.  Watch video first, then look at pics.  Check it out!



But here are some screen captures that I took for a much clearer comparison.  The only thing that changed between shots was the f/stop.  It was increased from 1.8 (both ISO 100 and 160 used f-1.8) and up to counteract the increase in ISO.  Other than that the only software adjustment performed was adding some sharpening to all the shots.  Let me know what you thought of this in the comments! Thanks for stopping by!
ISO 1250 - F/stop 3.5

ISO 160 - F/stop 1.8

ISO 320 - F/stop 2.2
