    I am doing more and more memorial shoots. It is not in good taste to use lighting, I need a good low light camera.

    I am currantly using a Canon XHA1 and 2 Canon GL-2’s.

    What is the best prosumer low light camera? How about the new Sony 1/2 inch CCD’s.

    Any body have any experience with prosumer low light cameras?

    Your help is appreciated.

    The Sony PD-150 and PD-170 (Vx2000,VX2100) are known for their low-light abilities and I don’t think any other prosumer cameras have bested them yet.

    I use the Sony Z5U and FX1000, both of which are HDV. I am happy with their low-light capability. Jim
