...and am a little confused as to how important the difference between say 2 or 2.8 is from a 1.4, in terms of the AF100. Can't you just dial up the ISO, or is it too noisy?
I think for most folks the difference has less to do with light levels and more to do with the depth of field. I can dial up the ISO to 1,600 with my scene file setting and not need to really worry about noise (and the gamma is set to Cine-D to boot). The shoot I mentioned a few posts back in part involved shooting a couple of interviews in a nearly completely dark room with only a 500w light and a 250w light (both with heavy gridcloth for diffusion) at f/2.8 and ISO400 and it looked just fine.
