Will it be shots from across the street or on the sidewalk in front of you. Across the street the 200mm will work great but if you are trying to capture a store front with anything longer than the 55mm you will need to practically stand in the street trying to avoid people walking on the sidewalk between you and your subject.The biggest problem in any night scene is capturing enough light with a slow shutter speed and not getting movement blur. Not being familiar with the setting options on the D3100 I can't recommend much other than if using flash and you have the option to change it, set it to "Slow Rear" which will light up areas behind the subject giving depth to the capture.</blockquote>
