How is this in low light. For example, a birthday party with the lights out and candles lit?

Again, in low levels of light, & with the low color temperature light quality of the candle flame, you will get a somewhat grainy & yellow/orange cast to the image. I don't know if there's a Tungsten color temp balance adjustment to correct the yellow cast as I've not had time to go into manual settings yet. I'm sure you can mess with some lighting additions that cast just enough light on the subject & leave the cake to look more candle light.Alan W

I have not really tested it so I can not say.We have been leaving one light on for background lighting for birthday candles and that has worked very well however.Sorry.

I've only taken one low light photo, and it turned out well. However, I still would not recommend this camera. It's heavy and not particularly user friendly.

I am happy with this set of lights, I use it to photograph my baby and small family shots. They are not super powerful, so shooting stationary objects will be a breeze compared to using it for a quickly moving baby. I use the daylight setting on my Canon Rebel xsi for the best white balance. I have never had a problem with the quality of the lights/stands, they just aren't extremely bright in a dark indoor setting.

It works very well in low light if you use the right settings, which take a little experimenting. I used it in the rides at Disneyland (Snow White, Peter Pan) and it did amazingly well; very little noise and great colors with great, clean blacks.

I have had pretty good luck with night shots, however it only works if there's a little light to work with. I have put my camera in an area where there's a lot of over growth and No moon light and my pictures are also dark.If the area is open and there's some light to work with its pretty good in my opinion.

I actually haven't used them in low light conditions. I purchased them for a music event that took place during the day. For being a low cost option they are very easy to use and offer a very nice clear view. I would imagine that you would still enjoy a pretty good view in a slightly darker setting.

I would not call it dim like a candle lit dinner :) I would just call it less-bright. I am using lutron C L dimmer switch. The on off switch is separate from the dimmer control. Hope this helps

my camera takes good pictures in low light ,I wish it had a phase for when you are taking movies

I'm really surprised at how well the camera does at low lighted events. I usually take both flash pics and no flash pics but find many times the pics taken with available light are better than with the flash. Hope that helps.

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.

You will have to try different light etc. I do not know about low light or nights. During daylight it works just fine

It is not the best but there are some settings that you can use to help with the low light.

The video and camera do not work well in low light. You think you have good lighting but, it has to have lot's of light. In the day time you get great video and pictures. I use a flash light at night ( Mag. Light LED ) to light up what I need at night. Works well. The audio is very good. The wide angle is very nice. I would say a 45 degree angle to each side. The Muvi is a very nice tool for me. The cost is very low. I work Security and I would not want to work with out it.

It's wonderful and it really works well in low light. Looks better on the video than in real life. I also paid $749. $499 is a steal.

I would agree with most of the assessments on the quality. It isn't bad, but it ain't great! What would really be a great benefit is a strobe flash if they could have provided or would be an accessory to use. Much better for outdoor in full light level photography than for indoor "birthday party" snapshots. AlanW

You could probably change the ISO/shutter/aperture settings to compensate for low lighting, but I usually set it to Auto mode, and I feel it's not bad. I can still see relatively well although it's rather noisy/fuzzy (it hardly bothers me, but I usually try to avoid low lighting anyways).

This camera is great in low light if you use the flash. Without the flash the photo will come out a little dark. Trust me; you'll love this camera :)
