Hey everyone,

Well I have not had time to research this, so figured I could at least ask.

I'm looking for a GOOD digital camera that does really GOOD low light type pictures...like from concerts and such events. I have yet to find one that does too well, even from the 8th row!

So wanted to see if anyone knows a GOOD digital for these types of pictures???

Thanks in advance!

big slrs will give good shots but many places will not allow you to bring them in concerts since your not supposed to be recording the event...so a compact one will be better so you can sneak it in.

fuji's f series compact cameras have been known for good shots in this area... also if the lens says 2.8 or lower it means it lets more light in and it better for that type of shooting

Any digital camera that you can raise the ISO to about 1600 for low light situations.

This is the camera I have and have to say I have not gotten one decent night shot from it yet.
