[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 110334, member: 9521"] Several things you can try 1) focus using LiveView, 2) bring a flashlight and illuminate the subject so auto-focus can get enough contrast to focus; 3) pay close attention to your lens during the day when it focuses on things that are approximately the same distance and make a mental note (or a small piece of painters tape) at the focus settings your lens was at. Then when you're shooting in the dark set the lens to that setting and stop down a stop or two to account for any error in focusing. Assuming the 35mm has the window that shows the focus setting, that is. [/QUOTE]
