Photo Forum / Digital Photography / DSLR Cameras / June 2008Low light comparative Pics?
I am looking for images that show the same indoor (or low light) scene taken with a DSLR and a P&S cam. Obviously without flash. The purpose is to examine the difference in noise levels as a result of the larger sensor - so the aperture and shutter speeds also have to be the same. Any sites spring to mind? > I am looking for images that show the same indoor (or low light) scene > taken with a DSLR and a P&S cam. Obviously without flash.

You might visit DPReview. They often do comparisons of different cameras, although I'm not sure if they would have a comparison on a P&S verses a semi pro system. There are a lot of other factors that play in to a comparison like that.

There are a lot of other factors that play in to a comparison like that. Jeff Roush / photo instructor http://www.roushphotoonline.com For some good info on comparing sensor performance, see Roger N. Clark's website at: http://www.clarkvision.com Take Care, Dudley I should have appended "other than dpreview.com" to the "any sites sprigt to mind". Thanks Dudley, while I had given up on Clark for being too technical, one page on that site offering a side by side comparison of the results of a D70 and a Mark1 was enlightening enough. Though the subject of the review was sensor pixel size, the difference in noise levels quite vividly conveyed.

The comparison is directly useful for comparing sensor sizes, but for comparing pixel sizes, the article can lead to false conclusions, because one can very easily forget to remember or realize (and most people do fail to) that pixel size is a relevant issue only when you are considering images composed of the same number of pixels.  SignatureJohn Sheehy : I am looking for images that show the same indoor (or low light) scene : taken with a DSLR and a P&S cam. Obviously without flash. The purpose : is to examine the difference in noise levels as a result of the larger : sensor - so the aperture and shutter speeds also have to be the same. : : Any sites spring to mind? Sounds like you're looking for arguments to use on your wife to justify buying a new DSLR. ;^) For low-light work, how about the new Canon XSi (450D) with the Sigma 30mm f/1.4? That won't set you back too much. Bob |
