She retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.From the PHB, under Gnome:Low-Light Vision: A gnome can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. He retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.From the PHB, under Half-Elf:Low-Light Vision: A half-elf can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. She retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.From the Monster Manual, under Low-Light Vision:Low-Light Vision (Ex): A creature with low-light vision can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of shadowy illumination. It retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.From the DMG, under Low-Light Vision:LOW-LIGHT VISIONCharacters with low-light vision have eyes that are so sensitive to light that they can see twice as far as normal in dim light. Low-light vision is color vision. A spellcaster with low-light vision can read a scroll as long as even the tiniest candle flame is next to her as a source of light.Characters with low-light vision can see outdoors on a moonlit night as well as they can during the day.So, we can see that a character with low-light vision can see outdoors on a moonlit night as well as they can during the day, and that they can see twice as far as a human in moonlight.Therefore a human can see half as far as a character with low-light vision in moonlight, which means they can see half as far as they can during the day.If you only look at the DMG quote, you don't have all the information.-Hyp.</blockquote>
