How a bout a test like on camcorderinfo.com?
The problem is, I don't really trust her reviews. In one review she'll bash a cams low light performance only to praise it when she's reviewing another cams performance.

How about some tests like this:

Standard TV test sign printed out. (like on camcorderinfo)
Shoot some video of it from 10ft away under different conditions

test picture 5 ft away from a 100w bulb
then a 60w
then a 40w
then a candle (pict 2ft away)

Maybe even add in a shot of the moon with out any zoom
