Yes, I have been pleasantly surprised that the pictures come out well with low light.

Hi there. I haven't checked the quality of the video with low light, if that is what you are asking.

Hello Steve, this is not a good choice for low-light conditions. It only works in daytime, or indoors with good lighting.

I have found that it produces acceptable images in fairly low light. I don't try to take pictures in almost total darkness so I have no experience there. Under a full moon it took acceptable pictures of animals in my yard. HTH

Low light pictures are excellent with this camera. I took a couple of pictures with my dog walking around under low light without flash. They came out fine

Honestly, I'm not sure. I never tried to film in low light and my low light photos were not particularly impressive. As an aside, I want to let you know that I don't think this camera is worth your money, that is if you want a durable, working camera. After only one year of light usage of this camera, while on a trip to the Grand Canyon, the camera inexplicably began to produce super overexposed photos. After that happened, I fiddled around with the camera and adjusted it according to the instruction manual, but I couldn't fix the issue. Eventually, I came back to the Amazon and searched for the product's negative reviews and sure enough, others had similar issues that made this camera not usable after a few months to a year. According to those reviewers, when they reached out to Fuji to inquire about getting replacement parts or their cameras fixed, Fuji was either completely not helpful or offered very costly help. You may want to check out those negative reviews for yourself.

I don't like how it shoots in low light situations. BUT you can push the ISO in AV or TV mode and it should work OK. You may have to remove some digital noise in the editing.

As long as you are steady, it is a very good performer in low light. It also has a number of settings you can adjust for the low light situation, and I have gotten some great shots with it. It is excellent in movie mode at night.

It's a little dark in bright light but seeing it hasn't been a problem for me, it is better than most camera's in bright light. The camera seems to be optimized to take pictures outside and in bright light. It takes very poor indoor pictures or pictures with dark lighting.

My experience is that the W50 is not a great low-light camera because of the size of the glass. The marketing is TECHNICALLY correct; low-light shots don't have as much noise as they might otherwise have. But low-light shots are also not very bright! You'll need the flash pretty often indoors. The good news is that the flash is pretty natural-looking. I've been happy with how well it exposes with the flash. I generally use the reduce flash (FLASH -) setting.

It takes decent pictures w/o flash but not in super low lighting conditions.

I have had amazing results in low light, back light, and practically no light conditions. The auto and advanced auto flash settings are great, and with flash turned off in low light conditions, the picture still shows up in focus with plenty of detail.

Absolutely, the wide frame of view coupled with the low aperture should make it very simple to take photos in low light, provided you've got a camera that can handle the high iso!

Yes but not moving subjects. Distant subjects are especially hard to capture without blurring the image. For casual pictures it is actually very good in low-light and rarely to I need a flash unless it is truly dark.

Maybe it is good in low light because for the same reason it is no sharper than a cheap 5 MP camera: all the light is concentrated on a smaller CCD. Maybe it is really no better than other new cameras i low light. I have always been happy with simple sony and samsung cameras. Cameras are one of the devices you really have to test side-by-side in the store to know.
