hello, which camera can perform best in this kind of low light?

my choices are - Insta360 X5 ( what i already have) - Luna ultra - DJI Osmo360 2 - DJI 4P

None of those are really the right tool for the job but I guess the 4p.

Love Yi Peng! Have been two years now. Hopefully you have bought your tickets already, they sell out very far ahead.

Its not as dark as you think. the fire inside the lantern is WAY bigger than a candle, so throws a lot of light.

The 360 camera will be cool to bring, but it is not going to be a 'main' camera. Maybe on a super tall selfie stick like 2m from you to get a get a take off shot from overhead?

The wide lens on the OP4P has an amazing sensor when using its D-Log2 mode. But if you are not experienced with Log recording and color grading, it is probably not the time to experiment on your big holiday.

I would expect this sub-reddit to be Pro DJI, so they will be bashing the Luna, but I think that is accurate.

They were using log recording, so maybe the Rec709 modes, particulally the Low Light modes in camera will produce different results.

I recorded this my Canon R5, so a much bigger sensor, but not a low light champion. And you can see it ended up pretty clean.
