izoom and low light

When high ISO and OIS are not enough to help you find the light, another magic tool is iZoom.

In this shot i set iZoom to 1.4x and focal is 35mm so the result is 50mm, but the shake tolerance remains thoose of a 35mm shot allowing me a shutterspeed of 1/8 handeld with ISO. I also gain f/4.5 apeture archiveing a 10Mpixel sharp picture.

So: iZoom+OIS+ISO1600=better aperure and stability at the price of some megapixel.

UPDATE:

i did some field experimentation to add some information:

Focal	ISO	Speed	F	Resolution
50	6400	1/60	5.6	20M
35 (=50)	2500	1/40	4.5	10M
24 (=48)	1600	1/30	3.5	5M

I used the 20-50 lens, so minimum speed for non OIS lens was used.

As you can see you get much more light and lower ISO. Best result, to my taste, was the 10Mpix image, better balance between resolution and noise.
