After reading another thread, I see that achieving the bronze canister level (over 500 DLs) gets an increase in uploads (from 20 to 25/week), but I was wondering if there are any other benefits (as a non-exclusive)?

No, there's no other benefits except that you can now apply for exclusivity.

... if you consider that a 'benefit', given iStock's abysmal upload limits.

Wrong. There is also an increase in your royalties. With the broze canister you get a 5% royalty increase. So the .20 minimum royalty becomes .25

Only if you are exclusive it doesn't change for non exclusives and the upload limit is 30 not 25.

Straight from the iStock page!
The upload limits per 168 hours (week) for non exclusive are:
Default: 20
Bronze: 25
Silver: 30
Gold: 35
Diamond: 50

Your were right that the royalties stay at the base level for non-exclusives.
