What custom setting do you use in low light around sundown or indoors with just tungsten light and in bright light, like at 12:00 noon outdoors. Is auto sufficient?

Thanks,
Leonard.

Auto may be sufficient. If not then these setting are the ones I have found to keep grainy footage out of low light:

Sharpness down a notch
Setup level up a notch or two
Shutter speed to 1/30 may help
Gain at 6 to 12db....18db may show grain
Open exposure setting as needed

Am I missing anything?
