Low light shots are not normally a problem for the landscape specialist 
using multi second exposures. I am not aware of a MF system with the sort of 
low light performance people go on (and on and on....) about in small 
cameras. Maybe the S2 could be the first to be better than the others and 
make it a unique selling feature? Or maybe people using this type of camera 
have other priorities.
