    this just a handy tip

    for some reason, in the UK, the new iPad app is listed under: M for "Manual Viewer" not N for "Nikon Manual Viewer"

    Hi, TiCreativeMedia:

    You might be interested in Ben Long's course in night time and low light photography at Lynda.com.
    He deals with both flash and existing light techniques.

    A usefull figure to keep in your mind is iso 100 at F8 needs 1 sec for street lighting /night scenes
    variations of that eg 100iso f2.8 needs 1/8 sec or iso 1600 f2.8 1/60.....but you are best just to set the auto iso to 100-6400 and adjust the f stop with a minimum you can hold say 1/15 if you have VR

    This low light stuff requires like most unique situations, a lot of practice. And, i am still doing that. The subject is generally what determines everything else. It is easy to grab static subjects, not so easy, or at least requires some actual thinking, to grab objects which may be in motion….. like people.

    I fail a lot in low light, but learn what not to do each time… LOL My point is, go do it, learn.
