Coolpix?

Ok, let me rephrase that then. What's good for under, say $300, that would let me take very good, low noise and fast photos in low light? Are you trolling? Didn't we just go through a similar exercise and several people pointed you to www.dpreview.com where you can answer all of your own questions? |

Ok, let me rephrase that then. What's good for under, say $300, that would let me take very good, low noise and fast photos in low light? The crucial point is the effect of sensor size on high ISO noise. You need to check out the high ISO images from the Coolpix models with the largest sensors to see if that's good enough for you. If not check out other compacts which have much larger sensors to see if any of them are good enough for you. If not you need to consider larger bridge or DSLR types of camera with 4/3 or APS-C sized sensors. You also need to consider how much work you're willing to do to remove the noise. There are now some sophisticated modern noise reducing programs that can do a better job than your camera or what came in the box with it. -- Chris Malcolm |
