Although there is no doubt that a lot of Fuji's much-lauded high ISO performance is about noise reduction (as opposed to improved sensitivity), and the F10's ISO 800 output has some pretty obvious NR artefacts, there really is no comparison here. The SD700 IS result looks very noisy, and - though Canon has done the right thing by not blurring away all the detail - it's only really usable for small prints. That said, it's better than some cameras manage at ISO 400, and if you're shooting socially in low light it's nice to have an ISO 800 option, even if the results are noisy, especially when (as here) you're not losing all the detail from the scene.

Canon's latest flagship, the EOS-1D X Mark III is a big, fast, tough DSLR that hides an impressively refined mirrorless camera within it. We've taken a pre-production model to a basketball game, a low light concert, and even a blacksmith shop. Find out how we think it stacks up.
We've been testing the Nikon Z50 extensively and found a lot to like about it. However, the camera's biggest drawback is probably that it faces such well-established competition.
The Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III is the company's latest Micro Four Thirds camera; it looks great, feels great, and takes beautiful photos. There's a lot to like, but there are a few things we'd change. Find out more in our full review.
