You're right, cine mode does shift the colors, gamma, etc. I'm pretty sure the spotlight mode doesn't shift the colors, however, but it does shift the exposure priority to favor non-blowing-out of highlights, which wouldn't work well for some scenes.
Most of the scene modes do shift something or the other in terms of exposure, aperture, shutter speed, or color, so if limiting the gain is all the Sony does in twilight mode, that would be pretty cool and a good thing to know.
One of the things I like about the SD9 is the full manual exposure control which lets you fix the gain, shutter, and aperture independently, but after playing around with both, I might be leaning toward the HF100 because of the better image quality - better sharpness but poorer colors actually - so many tradeoffs. Too bad there isn't a Canasonic SD100 with the best of both!
