I shot a Panasonic lx-5. Part of the reason this camera performs so well is it has a full size 1.1 in sensor chip just like the slrs use giving it amazing image capturing, but the real reason it works so well at night is it has a Leica f2.0 lens at 24mm-50mm only a 2.8 at full zoom of 90mm. With a huge chip and huge lens opening, a dummy can do this

Just saying there isn't a trick, it was a good camera.. Panasonic cameras very GREATLY by age and line.. If night shots are what you desire, I would recommend a dslr, or one of two Pocket sized cameras. Panasonic lx-5 like mine, or the canon s95, which is a little smaller and does a great job as well. Even the Nikon 1 series supposed slr replacement doesn't have lens openings like these two mentioned..

I guess I will note if u have allot of money and like red dot cameras. (if you know what that means you probably do have allot of money) Leica offers the lx-5 with their moniker too called the Leica d-lux 5.. Essentially a lx-5 for 300$ more. But it does come with a adobe image editor, so possibly worth it if you need that
