i've always liked canon too but its not great in low light and takes blurry shots alot of times which sux |
well that may have to do with the noise that comes with increased ISOs as well as holding the camera steady. the canon ultracompacts these days have f2.8 aperture built right in, which def helps with lowlight situations...
if u are looking for a camera that takes GOOD lowlight pictures consistently, read reviews of certain Fuji compact cameras, they are known to be sharper at higher isos than other cameras (i almost bought one awhile back because of this). Cons: Most Fuji models use a xD card which is of a different format than the regular SD card that most automatic cameras use. And i think as good as they are in lowlight, they kinda fall short in other areas.
Or consider the Panasonic Lumix series in particular the TZ3 or L1/2 (i *think* i recall a TA on here who was using that and the pics/videos were really good quality.) 10x optical zoom and the lens is larger than average which makes me think it would be great in lowlight. Panasonic Lumix cameras definitely do take awesome videos but i think they use .mov format which take up more space on a memory card (BUT it does translate to very good quality)
(btw there may be more models on the market, this is just based on what i read up on maybe 1-2yrs ago). i stopped reading once i switched to a dSLR.
Drew has a 870IS which he has been very happy with.
SONY is great for videos but the picture quality seems to diminish with time...after awhile pictures come out blurry (maybe the sensor gets knocked loose or something) and no one knows why. its happened more than once to ppl i talk to, so it cant be just coincidence.
