Hi,
I aleardy have a Nikon camera with 4 mega pixel, 3x optical zoom. However, I cant get good picture in a concert or video recording. So I am looking for a high optical zoom camera like Song DSC 800. It comes in 8.1 mega pixel, 6x optical zoom, 12x digital zoom but its limitation is that it is using Sony lens rather than Carl Zeiss. Can anyone tell me is it good? sony is a really great brand of camera, so it should be. the 800 is good When you say "... I can't get good pictures in a concert or video recording" do you mean they are blurry or otherwise unsatisfactory?
A good image is dependent on several interrelated factors: light, ISO, lens aperture and shutter speed. In low light situations like at a concert you'll be shooting at a higher ISO with a larger lens opening and a slower shutter speed. Here are some examples from my FotoSharp "Day & Night Exposure Guide":
School stage/auditorium
1/30 second @ f4.0 @ ISO 1600
Indoor sports, circus - floodlit
1/125 second @ f4.0 @ ISO 1600 |
