Noise Reduction
Noise reduction software smooths away unwanted image noise very thoroughly at low ISOs, however noise becomes increasingly problematic as we move up the ISO scale. Detected noise rates averaged only 0.36% at ISO 80, but by 1600 spiked all the way up to 2.77%. Therefore, if you plan to do all your shooting outside, the S3300 should be fine, but don't consider this camera a strong low light performer. More on how we test noise.
ISO Options
Full resolution sensitivity options extend from ISO 80 to 1600. If light is really a problem, it's possible to unlock ISO 3200 with a menu option, though this limits resolution to 4 megapixels.
