Re: Nx300- how to improve low light performance?

if blurry, I think you shoot in very poor light. this make shutter open really long time and make pictures blurry.  this is not camera fault but need to improve  know how of camera.

many options to take better pictures.

NX300 jpeg is really good quality. with no flash, set iso manually to 8,000 iso when really poor light. disable noise reduction to off or set to low. underexpose by 1EV to improve shutter, this may improve sharpness. if hit 1/80 already or 1/125, then this is ok shutter speed if person is stationary. no sudden fast movement. if able to shoot at 1/200, it is best even with movement but make sure exposure is only underexposed by -1EV and do not become too dark for picture.

my opinion, if want to get best picture quality, light is essential with any camera.
as mentioned, use off-angle flash. use raw for better picture quality adjustment. also able you to shoot best picture quality possible which is lowest iso at 100.
