Wanted: high-ISO digicam
The search tools at Dpreview.com or Steves-Digicams or Imaging-Resource
aren't helping me find an appropriate camera. I want something to replace a film P&S camera loaded with 800 speed film that can be used in dark canyons to record sports action (kayaking). Although the Canon CMOS models and Sony-CCD-based DSLRs (Nikon Pentax K-M) produce excellent results at ISO 1600 and good results up to ISO 6400, I have not found a compact digicam model that is much good above ISO 200. Even the $1800 Leica Digilux 2 is visibly soft at ISO 400 (calling it a "compact" would be a misnomer however). Am I missing something? Is there a compact digicam that produces even remotely acceptable results at ISO 800-1600? I'm tired of blurry pictures from camera shake and subject movement. |
