need some advice here on the low light function.

i m still new to this camera therefore i switch to low light function during the annual dinner in ballroom.

the image quality look nice when view on Cam, but after export to PC, the image pixel was blurr.

Futher explanation is, i use low light function the whole night without using any flash on.

result, out of ballroom with sufficient light, the picture quality is great, but inside ballroom and low light area, the picture was blurr(not hand shaking), quality is like taking with cellphone.

its this normal? please help.

Yep, because you using low light mode, the camera will choose very high ISO to compensate for low light. In this case, your image will look grainy. Is better to control ISO manually if you wan better image quality. Lower ISO is always better. Try Google ard for different ISO settings to see the differences. And look out for Aperture and Shuttle Speed as well : ) then u will have a basic understanding how they all works together

you should use flash with lower ISO. If you use low light mode, even in a sufficient light place, the picture still look more noise compare to low ISO setting.

Now, Low Light Mode is for printing a small size picture. if u view in computer with bigger screen, the picture will look bad.

I just buy a big flash gun, YN-465. Here is few test shot:

Power of -3:


Power of -2:


Power of -1:


Power of 0:

Power of 2:


Power of 3:



Any problem with this flash?

1. After attached flash, if u turn on ur G12 1st then turn on flash. The flash LED wont on, but flash is function. Just LED bug.
2. I not sure the TTL is function or not? I just set the flash to Auto. So, ISO is Auto too.

Overall:

1. The flash power is very good.
2. Camera + Flash + adapter 55-72mm = heavy head. but is ok to hold in both hand when shooting.
3. Price is reasonable.

,

How u edit with the panaroma shoot? or how many snaps u takes to combine it nearly perfect?
everytime i wanna take panaroma shoots, im just tooooooo slow until my fren get angry, then i just giv up, didn take any extra shoots..

i use the software that provided by canon. i think each picture overlap 20% to next picture. a tripod or a stable ground (table, chair, floor, any thing that make ur camera stable.

Added on May 27, 2011, 4:07 pmOh...what is the best memory card should i get for the G12?
Plan to trade in and upgrade the memory card that comes with.

Just a moderate user, maybe some video from time to time.

I have a 16gb class 4 but i'm afraid it might be too slow for video or high res photo.

Advice pls...Thanks
