Good morning.
I'm writing for some recommendations. I do a lot of photography for my organization at events and we're in the market for a new digital camera. I'm looking for something that has a silent shutter and can shoot in low light without a flash (both of these are important in order to capture moments and subjects during meetings or events without being disruptive.) Along side of that I'm looking for a lens in which I can zoom in on people from across the room while they are speaking/presenting.
Do you have any recommendations for me?
Thank you for your time.
Bridget
Hi Bridget, Thanks for asking about a camera and lens combination for shooting dimly lit events without a flash and with silent shooting. Generally speaking, you should look at a Canon camera with larger individual pixels. In other words not too many pixels jammed onto the sensor. Smaller pixels are not as good a collecting light as larger pixels.
All of the mirrorless cameras shoot in silent mode now and you can also silence your auto-focusing feature. See the full frame cameras below with reasonable pixel counts.
