[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 654126, member: 24285"] And now for something completely different - for me anyway - tried my D500 at night - it was a long shot ... well if 20 seconds count as long. Used a Tokina 11-20, shot wide open at 11mm. Just out my back door (there is a song there I'm sure). It had warmed up to just minus 18° C so thought I'd give it a go. Fingers tip open gloves put to their intended use. I know it needs a lot of work. Just starting to learn about this type of photography. I was going to try my fisheye's as well but frozen fingers said 'not tonight' - besides there were no northern lights to be seen. Been thinking of getting a Nikkor 20mm 1.8 or one of the manual Rokinon's (14mm probably). But not right now. The 11-20 is 2.8 at 11mm so should be adequate. I'd hope?
