For low light some electronic viewfinders are actually worse than optical ones. I have a (rather old) Minolta dImage 7i which does binning on the sensor in low light, giving excellent results in darkness, but my Olympus OM-D EM1 does not do so and is just cranking up the ISO so much it is very noisy when it's dark.
- _ph_ 4y agoIt might be noisy, but it definitely delivers a reasonably bright image where an optical viewfinder would be completely dark already. Especially in the high gain modes, you have like a night vision device - try pointing the E-M1 at the stars with the higher of the live view amplification modes. It is great how many stars you can see this way.
- gsliepen 4y agoI think I never tried enabling live view boost for night time shots. I'll try it out, thanks!
