A night when I was taking photo to see just how little light is required to hand hold a shot with the new (Christmas) Nifty Fifty lens. Of course, Bella was the photo subject. Verdict? Very little light. Even without IS. However, you do pick up a lot of noise when the light is too low to auto focus. Fine for when you want a memory not to pass you by. Not that good when you're more interested in IQ.
