D70 notes: Long distance pictures in the dark
http://whataretheysaying.powerblogs.com/posts/1158978937.shtml


   Taken with a tripod & a remote on a dark, cloudy night.

   All were with a tripod and a remote

   [1]lowaperture 
   done the old-fashioned way, with [2]aperture priority set low

   [3]iso1000 
   done with manual remote control held down for more than a few seconds
   and a high [4]ISO.(1000)

   [5]iso200 
   manual remote control held down for more than a few seconds and an ISO
   of 200.

   It's a dull shot but it's nice to compare them before I take pictures
   of the city. I like the last one best - it's brighter, less grainy
   than the others.

   One thing to remember when taking night shots - bring a flashlight so
   you can see what you're doing.
