Whenever i take photos at night in the artificial lighting (in the tubelight lighting) using 48 MP (In my Asus 6z)......the image processing tends to blacken the picture. How to get over this ? Please help !

48MP works badly in low light as each individual pixel size is small.
The sensors from SONY are designed to work best in 12MP , where 4 pixels are combined for color data.

48MP is generally only suitable/recommended in bright daylight - as you need a lot of light (to counter the small individual pixel size) but also fast shutter speeds to counter the longer processing time. Keep in mind the ZenFone 6 does not have OIS.
