How does the S600 do in lower light, indoor situations without using flash?

I am finding this a distinct problem in my current Fuji digital.

I do a lot of zooming and cropping when I edit pictures. How would this camera perform in this respect?

Thanks for any suggestions.

hello
here is quote from trusted reviews review of the camera
http://www.trustedreviews.com/digital-cameras/review/2008/05/08/Nikon-CoolPix-S600/p3
The autofocus system is a big improvement on some earlier S-series models, but is still not without its problems. It is quick and accurate in good light and at wide angle, but its low light performance lags some way behind most of its competitors. It also still has a tendency to hunt around at longer zoom settings,
and the combination of telephoto and low light usually defeats it altogether.
my choice is the panasonic tz5

here is a link to a superb photo taken by a tz5
