This was shot by David Fincher on a RED ONE with a Mysterium-X sensor at ISO 2000 and a Master Prime at T 1.3 (or slightly stopped down from there). Key light is only a match. When the match goes out, Leo’s face goes black.
There is absolutely no noise reduction in this shot.
David did this as a favor to us, as did Leo.

There was a lot more light on the monitor than visible by eye in the scene itself.
