Hello,
Looking for a camera that both my wife and myself can use in low light without a flash. She recently took some pictures in candlelight with her iPhone. I didn't know this was possible, short of something like a 5D MK II. They were incredibly grainy but nice in their own way.
We were looking to buy a DSLR with a couple fast lenses for shooting low light without a flash, but apparently there are no DSLRs with auto ISO. I would not mind changing the ISO manually depending on the lighting, but this is not something she would be interested in.
So which point and shoot performs well in low light without a flash?
I would prefer one that can shoot multiple RAW photos in a second.
I would prefer less rather than more megapixels for max photosite size and better low light performance – I can upres a little using Genuine Fractals if we need to crop.
Of course I would also prefer that the sensor be as big as possible.
I am also curious what max ISO a point and shoot can do, if that info is available.
Thanks,
Chris
