Is this a good camera for low light sports photograhpy?

Speed is good along with the noise reduction - This is more of a question about the lens you intend to use. As alway the bigger (lower f-stop) the better (and unfortunatly more expensive.)

Yes the D7100 has just all the resources to take good pictures for low light sports.

Yes, it is. You can increase your ISO sensitivity with very little to no graining showing up compared to other cameras I have used.

Thanks for your inquiry.Yes, it works extremely well in low light environment because of its High Dynamic Range sensor.

This is a fantastic lens for sports photography in its focal length range. I use it to take pictures of tennis players, both during the day when the light is very good and at night when it isn't. There is a faster (f2.0) 200mm fixed focal length lens that could be useful if the light is really poor, but it is much more expensive. The real question is whether you will be so far away that 200mm isn't enough; I have not used any of the tele-converters.

I do. My kid plays volleyball and basketball. It has a small aperture so you wont get great shots in low light games. In the gym great!

I have only used it in low light conditions at home, it takes decent pictures.

It has performed very well for me in low light situations. I have been startled a few times by the brightness of the recorded image. I usually use a Pentax 18-250mm lens.

I have not used it in a really low light situation yet. I have taken pictures in the shade and the clarity is excellent. I used the "Automatic" selection on the camera and I've been happy with the ones taken in the shade.

This is an excellent camera. I have been using it since it was first launched. It can definitely handle low light, however I would recommend a fast lens. That will be the key to keeping the the dreaded noise out of your pictures with higher ISO. Aa far as documents. I would definitely think this would be a great camera to use. I would invest in a tripod though and possibly a macro lens.

low light recording is good as long as you do not zoom. The bigger the aperture of the lens the better quality of the picture

Pretty good. I don't use it for sports where I need quick follow up. I also have not tried quick follow up flash. I do notice when a camera is slower than reasonable between shots but I had no complaints. I actually bought this because my son has one which he really likes. He would definitely complain if it was slow between shots. He likes his and I have really liked mine. Just get an extra battery or two. Amazon for under $10. Hope that helps

Seems to handle low light shooting (Especially with high ISO) very well: http://www.stevehuffphoto.com/2012/10/09/night-time-street-shooting-with-the-sony-rx1-amazing-high-iso-samples/

Absolutely this camera perform very well even in low light settings. You can take very smooth and high quality photograps by using it. I purchased it with one of my professional friends' advice about phohotography.

Its actually not too bad. I use mine all the time in low light situations, but with any camera the lower the light your filming in it will start to look grainy. This camera comes with a light you can attach, so all you need to do is turn that on.

I cover High School sports, and in teh fall that means football, outside, at night, in varying light conditions. I typically run ISO3200, and the camera works fantastic. The camera is overall far better than I had hoped, and the pictures are fantastic.

First off, I'm not an expert or professional photographer and I normally take panoramic views. With that said, I've taken a few shots around the airport of planes coming in to land, and it really does the job. I guess that for sport events like basketball, and with the standard lens, your going to be just fine. If you're into fast pace sports like biking or skate boarding, I would actually recommend something with a viewfinder. I hope this helps.P.S.If you decide to buy this model, get the 200 mm telephoto lens and the DSTE Kit 2pcs BP-1030 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery + Charger. They are worth it!

That depends on how close you are to the stage (light source). The best camera in low light photography is the Sony A7S.
