[QUOTE="vladhed, post: 526207, member: 41519"] Thanks for the analysis Wayne, To answer your question, yes any picture taken of a scene at -1 EV or more is properly exposed. Anything -1EV or less will be exposed as if it were -1 EV. So if the scene is really -2EV, I need to dial in +1 compensation to get it to add a stop of exposure. So in summary, the process for night photography is the same as the D40: 1) turn off Auto-ISO 2) guess at the exposure 3) take picture 4) look at the picture - if not right, go back to 2) [/QUOTE]
