Best Settings for low light with a Konica Minolta Dimage Z3?

Hello:
I have a Konica Minolta Dimage Z3. Low light conditions without the flash have something to be desired. What do you use when inside where you cannot use a flash.. such as in a church service, town meeting, etc.. overhead light but too far away for flash.
The best I have used for pictures is setting it on “P” and moving the “overexposure” to +2.0 .. same with video go to +2.0.
Do you have a better setting for pictures or video indoors? Maybe setting ISO to 400 as opposed to Auto? use P, A, S, M mode?

Thanks, Bill

An external light attachment has served me well. You can get one at RadioShack for less that fifty dollars.

You can take some great shots with that camera! I bought my wife a Minolta Maxxum QD for her birthday a number of years ago. I was so impressed by it that I bought the 7D, used, as my first digital camera. The Maxxum series is very good. And, as has been pointed out, Sony bought Minolta’s technology, so you can upgrade to a Sony Alpha digital SLR in the future if you like. Go for it!
