PMW-320 and low light

Post by Josip Ruzic » August 20th, 2012, 1:34 pm

Hi to all,
I'm going to buy PMW-320 and want know from someone who is using this camera to comment low light capability in low light situation like weddings, event, concert etc. Now I own 6 years old PDW-F330, and I think to replace it with PMW-320. How much sensitive is PMW-320 over PDW-F330?
Thanks!

I own a 320 and used it for a concert video with a Sony EX3. The 320 was a half stop faster. It's a gorgeous camera. Questionable purchase now though with the 200 coming out.

Dear chrisccw,
Many thanks for you answer! It means to me a lot. Yes, the 200 is coming out, but the shoulder form factor, existing wide lens, and the good price (the PMW-320 has 2 months) is telling me to buy.

Thanks again,
Josip

It's IBC this week so I would hold off on any purchasing decisions until after IBC.
