[QUOTE="nickt, post: 331044, member: 4923"] As HF said, keep the iso low. Only raise it if you must to get a desired shutter speed or aperture. Don't use auto iso. Also keep in mind that your meter will try to make the scene look like a daytime scene. If you need it to look as dark as you see it, shoot in M. Or if its more of a twilight scene, you could try dialing in some negative exposure compensation in A or S mode. You might need to focus manually if its too dark. You could try your night portrait and night landscape scene modes. I've never tried them though, but it can't be any worse than us guessing and giving you specific settings. In the end, its best to just be very comfortable with your camera and be ready to quickly adjust the exposure as needed. Shooting RAW will give you more to play with when you get home too. [/QUOTE]
