16mm pancake emount in low light
The 16mm is actually pretty fast at 2.8
here is some night footage, shot I think from a nex-5 YouTube - Murphy B Good plays midnight Corralejo and also http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RoIQ-RqOw4 As a side-note this lens has been underrated by dpreview and photozone for stills---or so some very experienced people say. This might be the first 'extra' lens to get if you have a VG10. BTW the nex-5 sells with both the 18-55 and the 16 for 100 off. best to all |

Looks like some macro-blocking of the street surface in the second clip, but overall decent low-light performance. What's your assessment of the low-light results compared to other video cameras you've owned?

Hi Kevin
I use the sony PD170 and vx2k, which as you know, is basically the low light king, though not HD of course. With a fast lens it could be beat, but not with kit lens, that's for sure. Maybe the 16 can come close but I would have to shoot some events before I could really say. Even the sony the PD starts to grain when I shoot dancing. I hate lights, but sometimes use a very small one made for vx2k hot shoe |
