Hey /p/. I am going to Iceland in a couple of weeks and I intend to photograph the Northern Lights if I'm lucky. I want to know how decent of a picture I would get from my current camera. I do not intend to purchase another, so I hope that's not an answer I receive. Here are the details:
>Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ200
>It's DSLR-"like" compact (off to a bad start, I know)
>Lowest aperture f/2.8 .. 60 sec max shutter speed
Can I get a good picture? Have it look decent in color, maybe some scenery in the background etc.? I can't even find a sample pic of someone trying (probably a bad sign).
Pic is some guy using a LUMIX-G5 (Mirrorless, I believe)

Yeah, I think it goes to 3200 but it get just a tad grainy over 800.
It'll always be grainy after 800
