There are situations where the photographer will opt for the highest ISO available, simply because it is the best way of securing the image. A low ISO does no good when lighting is dim, the use of flash is precluded, and the subject is moving, even if slowly. As an example, my shoot on Friday night didn't allow for low ISO use. At 1600, I was shooting wide open (f1.4), often lucky if I could get 1/40 sec. In these situations, the given is that low ISO performance is moot.
