does this camera take good pictures in low light?

Yes it does. Sometimes I have to adjust the settings but overall I do pretty good with my pics.

It has an APS-C size sensor, so if you are comparing it to a small point-and-shoot, it is much, much better at low light. The ISO can be cranked up pretty high, though I try not to use anything over 6400. With the kit lens at f/3.5 (or f/5.6 full tele), low light performance is decent, though a faster lens like the SMCP-DA 50mm f/1.8 would increase the performance even more.

Yes it's great in low light. I've taken pictures in pitch black with the flash and they turned out great!

Not a lot of actual low light use but based upon my relatively limited use, no factor. Camera has been simply outstanding in every respect!

Not at all. Like most digital cameras, it is a great camera and it takes great pictures when there is adequate lighting.

This camera not only works well in low light, it can, when hooked up properly make it's own light. The con is that it's a bit to big for a pocket camera, controls are confusing and even knowing which way to point the stupid thing is always a challenge. I have yet to take a decent picture. When I hook it up as the instructions show, it will only show pictures I have already taken with other cameras. My .02 cents says keep looking, others more qualified have had better luck it would seem. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your inquiry.Yes, it works extremely well in low light environment because of its High Dynamic Range sensor.

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!

Why not? This camera is great at night shots...excellent in low light. We just got back from Tahiti with 500 or so wonderful pictures.

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

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.

Yes it does. I took this camera to the Chicago Art Institute, they keep very low lights and no flash photography is allowed and my photos still came out clear and defined.

No. Just setting for low light filming, which IMO are very good even when there is minimal light.

The iphone can take decent pics in good light settings (ie outside) but when you take a pic indoors during evening the low light settings do not compare. This camera takes much better pics than the iphone in most situations.

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.

I'm not certain, but we have taken pictures in dim light which have turned out really well. We have then turned on the flash mode for comparison and the picture is even brighter and crisper looking . This camera takes amazing pictures in most situations! Hope this helps.
