Does this camera work well in low light?

Not the best situation, but yes it does quite well if there is some light above or around.

not all that well but it is a good camera for the price and low light is fine but you will appear dark and audio is 50/50 but fine for my need would not want to skype the president but great for talking to family

logitech "C920" is good but the logitech "Pro 9000 PC" is the best I have had mine for about 3 years and still works like new, great low light and lots of features.

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.

Yes. It works very good in low light even without flash. In fact i have used flash very few times. The recording also works good in low light. I have this camera for almost 3 weeks now and i am very happy i bought it. This is my first super zoom compact camera thought so you can ask others about it as well.

I've used it with very limited light and it does fine with mimimal noise (grain). If you shoot on TV mode at 60 speed. A tripod would of course help at that slow shutter speed.

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.

It is difficult to say, and the question is pretty subjective given that we don't know exactly how much light is available and what level of image quality you are looking for. Like most cameras in its class, this camera has a relatively small image sensor, so shooting in low light situations is not its strong suit. But the camera does ok, and will likely be better than shooting with a cell phone camera or similar. It won't be nearly as good as shooting with something in a DSLR class, however, which will have an image sensor several times the size of this one.

I have taken at least 100 photos withe Sony CX260V. Daylight photos are acceptable but not the quality I would want if I was using a 8-9 meg pixal camera. Low Light shots are worse than expected. I am working with the camera now to learn how to use the manual features instead of auto features and have been able to make some improvements in picture quality. Even better on the video recording side using the manual feature settings versus auto. Basically - it is a decent HD video camcorder with a camera feature that is nice to have when you do not want to carry two cameras.

It does work in low lighting but it depends on the distance and if its on the manual modes. anything other then the manual...you will get grainy photos.

Pics are great in low light with no flash and the delay is very short. I love this camera!

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

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).

Yes, I was pleasantly surprised with the great results in photographing people in very low lighting conditions that I would have thought required a flash. Make sure you change the setting on the dial from A (for automatic) to P and turn off the flash unit when taking pics of people in low lighting.

It has no special light settings, but I used it on a dark overcast day and the images came out great. I have not used it at night, but I would guess that it would be equal to an average photo camera.

Hi,I'm not a good expert in photography. Nevertheless, the pictures taken under low light situation are clear and good quality. My pictures at sunshine and sunset are very clear. I did not even need the flash systematically. The automatic function picks the automatically the adequate option for the pictures. Hopefully, this helps you to decide.

No, the camera is very grainy in low light. It looks okay at first, but it is more noticeable when you zoom in a bit.

The pics in low light are excellent....and the built-in flash, should you care to use it, is compensating!

This camera does very well in low light, but it is not IR. Infra Red cameras can see people in pitch black, so perhaps find a "Foscam" one if you really need it.
