[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 84069, member: 9521"] The easiest way to get the best results for nighttime shots w/o a flash is to put your camera on A and set your lens to it's largest aperture (smallest number) then set your camera's ISO to auto with the minimum shutter speed set at the lowest you think you can hold the camera steady at. In general a moving object requires around 1/60 sec, as you go slower the smear effect kicks and in grows with each step lower. That said, I like to use 1/60 to 1/80 and then be sure to shoot in bursts of 2 or 3, that way you minimize camera shake and your 2nd and 3rd image will be the sharpest. [/QUOTE]
