How well does the Nikon Coolpix L120 do in low-lighted gyms with lots of action?
I’m wondering how well the Nikon Coolpix L120 does in a low-light gym with lots of sport action. I have a Nikon Coolpix L22 which doesn’t do a grand job in that condition, even on the sport setting. I love my camera, but that’s its only downfall.
Please tell me if you know from personal experience, not a review you read. And please don’t suggest more expensive cameras. I’m not looking to buy a professional camera anyway.
You won’t be happy with it.
Like your L22, Nkon "L" cameras, including the L120 are entry level compact cameras.
If you want better low-light performance, consider the Nikon P300 or Canon S95.
My brother owns an L100 and it doesn’t do well in low-light conditions… I doubt the 120 is much different. Just crank up the ISO – you’ll get grainy pics, but you’ll be able to freeze motion reasonably well.

The L120 is just like your camera, with a longer zoom lens. In other words, the only difference you will see in low light and lots of action is that you can zoom in further. It is still a crappy camera.
You don’t set the rules for answers here, you get exactly what you paid for…

Low light + action?
With this camera the only thing you can do is use the flash

I’ve yet to see a compact camera that does well in those circumstances
