New to digital photography - need help

by lokachari Sep 21, 2005 9:48PM PDT

I am new to digital world and planning to buy a digital camera. After so many reviews and opinions my search has narrowed down to the following
1. sony cybershot DSC h1
2. canon powershot s2 is
3. panasonic fz20
4. olympus c-765

Out of the above four, i would like to know which one is better in terms of
1. Sharp pictures even in low light conditions
2. Sharp pictures in nights
3. Overall performance and value for money.

Please help me in deciding the same. Especially those who have used all the above mentioned cameras Please give your opinions.

Thanks in Advance

Please also let me know which one of the above cameras produce good quality images for indoor photography with low light conditions.

I will be using my camera mostly indoor under low light conditions.

Low Light Photography

by snapshot2 Forum moderator Sep 22, 2005 1:53AM PDT

I don't think that any of the four cameras you listed would have a big advantage over the others when shooting in low light.

You might want to consider two more cameras that have sensors that are very low noise, which means better low light performance.

Fujifilm S5200 and S9000

Here are links to their press releases:
