what depth will it work in, how are the pics from low light

It claims to be good to 40 meters. I have only used it snorkeling in daylight and it is fantastic for that. Very well made.

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

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

You are better off using live view. Why? At f/1.4 the depth of field is razor thin for portraits.

Should do fine in low light too, but adding light will always give you better results.

Yes - it works fairly well in low light. It will work in a squirrel house without trouble

It is simple to use. My 7 and 5 year old take pictures and movies with it. I have not taken it scuba diving so I can't personally confirm how it performs at depth. I have taken pictures underwater at snorkel depth and the photo quality is quite good.

The camera will focus in moderate low light conditions but it will not focus out of doors at light unless their is some artificial light. I have taken photos of a lighted boat parade and the camera will focus if I can get some boat lights in the picture but will not focus on the dark water. Hope this helps. Richard

depth is not like theaters, but is good for effects. The images don't come at you with clarity. But for the money, work ok !

the camera is good in nightshot plus in auto up to 1/2 into dusk, then the focus starts going haywire. In manual, it is good up to about 10 ft+/-, as long there is a light colored subject there....it can pick up trees, but.... Inside, it is good up to 15ft.+/- for a clear shot. Again, if lighter the colors inside the rooms, the little further you can see. I have gotten s far as 30ft with white walls and objects around it....you may have a little different results with yours. Beware, it does drain the battery faster than norm.....even faster in the cold....have not tried it outside in the dark with snow on the ground, yet. Hope this long winded answer is what you were looking for!

I don't believe this camera is really a "dive" camera, it's more of a snorkeling/pool camera. It's only rated to 49' which as you mention isn't really scuba depth. Nikon shows the camera being used this way but really it's not up to anything but shallow dives. I have used it extensively snorkleing & in the pool. Max depth I've tested is 12', worked fine.

They say the camera can go underwater up to 9.8 feet. i haven't had mine in water but I've had problems with the flash not working under dim light conditions. I think the camera is cheap with a poor operating program.Spend a little more money and get a better camera. I do not recommend it.

This would work fine. The image on screen appears to be about 5mp. And has stability help, so its not so shakey. BUT when taking a photo its about 1mp or less. Great for viewing crap for pics. Should be good for your needs. Its cheap and sturdy. Focus is on the very back, almost missed it myself

I've been using mine for Mudruns so I haven't been in water over a few feet deep but so far so go and it has worked fine within it's waterproof case...the picture quality is very good but not as good as my GoPro was but I had a couple of them die on me and couldn't afford to keep buying them so gave this camera a try and so far so good.

It seems bright, but at a distance of 4 to 5 feet you'll be shooting at f/ 5.6, ISO 400 And 1/30th to 1/60th of a second. Diffusion would make it almost unusable. Send me an email and I'll send you a photo.

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.

Hi Joel, i re-read what other people say about this cam..pls read Vance Marshall's comments too, it sums up what poorly it does. the touch screen is not as responsive. it doesn't function in indoor low lighting..its program robot kept focusing in low light, in fact won't do the job afterall. i didnt return this cuz the hassle of returning + it's only a hundred bux..i tried it in well lit indoor, the resulting photo was grainy. i know what im talking about cuz i also own a D-90..this is only CUTE AND TINY..is all..not for a real photographer..i bought another coolpix before = S3000 cuz of Ashton Kutcher commercial..that sucked too! i gave it away..the only reason i kept buying Nikon is bc the big dslr's are good..aside from D90 i have a d5100.. this sounds ridiculous telling i have cameras..i am just comparing the cool pix to dslrs..hope this helps!
