Hey Mark, Try setting the camera to the "P" on the dial (stands for Program AE). Once you do, click the Q. MENU button on the bottom right of camera. Select the ISO setting and change it to 200 or 400. I'm having the same issues as you with this camera and its poor low light performance. To get better shots indoors, it helps to crank up the ISO to a higher setting. The downside is that the picture may come in a bit grainy. The higher the ISO, the more grain, but at least you'll have a brighter and clearer picture. At ISO 200 and 400, you shouldn't have too much grain for it to ruin the picture. Let me know if it works!

You can also zoom in on the photo here to see the settings. You could take a photo/screenshot with your phone to always have it to see easily (or mark on bottom with Sharpie to remind you).

Sorry but I am not happy with this camera. I had one before like it that was great so I purchased the same one again after mine went kaput but unfortunately it doesn't take that great of pictures. Ourside are better than inside.

Miss Woracheck: I take a lot of my indoor pictures without flash, but always include at least one with flash. Work with the camera settings--"Auto Flash," "Flash On," Flash Off," etc., and check out how the Portrait setting changes things. You have a wonderful camera and it has more features than so far I have used. Best wishes.

i used mine this past weekend in a low light indoor situation, I wasn't happy at all with the results. I find this camera very hard to get crisp clear pictures. Not happy with my purchase, its very sensitive to blurring.

Using auto mode is no good. Tried higher ISO settings, not good either. You can see a partial here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-images/view-large-image.html/105-1173972-3968436?imageId=15137491One solution to this: always use manual mode indoor and force flash on. It seems to improves the quality of portraits significantly. Distant items could still be a problem though.

Here are some settings I found that might help you out: Main Picture Menu: - Picture Mode: Movie (set this before any of the rest!!) - Backlight: 10-20 (based on preference and ambient light in room, you can change this at the end to your liking) - Contrast: 100 - Brightness: 52 - Sharpness: 60 - Color: 51 - Tint: G50/R50 (center) - Picture Size: Screen Fit (otherwise you could very well lose some pixels) Advanced Settings: - Dynamic Contrast: Off - Black Tone: off - Flesh Tone: -5 - RGB Only Mode: Off - Color Space: Custom --- Red: 61, 0, 0 --- Green: 0, 50, 0 --- Blue: 0, 8, 54 --- Yelow: 89, 77, 0 --- Cyan: 0, 50, 50 --- Magenta: 53, 0, 50 - White Balanace: --- R-Offset: 23 --- G-Offset: 18 --- B-Offset: 22 --- R-Gain: 22 --- G-Gain: 31 --- B-Gain: 26 - Gamma: +1 - 10p White Balance: Off (trust me, not worth it!! Unless you have a professional calibration tool) Picture options: - Color Tone: Warm2 - Digital Clean View: Auto - MPEG Noice Filter: Off (removes details from many scenes) - HDMI Black Level: Low - Auto Motion Plus: Standard - Cinema Black: Medium

We set the camera on the IA setting, and changed the ISO to 1600. Great pictures/camera for the price.

You can set the ISO to a high setting and get fast shutter speeds. That will make the pictures sharp.The action setting should do this automatically.

I took some sample pics in the house at night with just lights on. They looked OK without the flash. I find with indoor pics I usually don't like the flash because it seems to wash out the photo.

For Indoor it will not work good unless the light is very strong. It's made for outdoor, the F 8.0 even after 5PM you will have problem to get good quality pictures.

Thank you for the advice. I played with the ISO, MP and color settings a little bit today and got some pictures that came out a little better. Sadly, I am comparing the pictures to my 8 year old Canon S50 and the S50 takes better pictures. Indoor flash pictures are particularly disappointing. It is hard for me to accept this. The reason I want to upgrade the S50 is for the smaller size, wider angle, zoom and HD video. I expect the pictures to be at least as good if not better after so many years.The S95 is a great suggestion. I may look into a Panasonic too. Now back to the search for the S50 successor.
