This corner here was lit with only a spotlight. So at ISO 800, the shutter speed that could be had was a mere 1/4 second. We won’t usually go beyond ISO 800 for this one-inch sensor camera. The image came out sharp however, even when viewed at 100 percent.

A snapshot of the glass pyramid of the Louvre with a human figure for scale. In post, cyans and magenta were intensified a little to enhance the blue sky and pyramid lighting.
