Low light & noise

1.5 µm pixels

12.1 MP on a 1/2.3" sensor, ISO up to 6,400

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:

How it stacks up

  • 380 shots — longer battery life than 100% of the 1/2.3" compact (fixed lens) cameras we list
  • 12 fps — faster bursts than 67% of the 1/2.3" compact (fixed lens) cameras we list
