Response to canon XL-1 in low light

from David Oulashian (david_o@juno.com)
When I tested the Canon XL-1, I found that it had ASA equivalant of about 160-200 under Tungsten lights. This surprised me a bit and seemed slower than what I was expecting. Have you tried cranking the gain up? You can also open the shutter speed up to 1/30, 1/15 and (I think) 1/8 of a second. Each step should effectively double your camera's sensitivity. Hope this helps.
