Using 3200 ISO film and f2.0 lens, there is no problem.<<<< http://boklm.eu/pg/antwerpen_night.html Wonderful! A photographer after my own heart! :-) Here we have a photographer shooting at 3200.... why not? Well some folks would have heart burn about grain and other wimpy things of that nature than capturing cool images in the dark of the evening. If you see cool things and it's almost zero light? Crank up the ISO rating and make interesting photographs rather than just standing there and thinking.. "Oh whine whine its too dark and I don't want any grain." Get over it! If you are turned on by neat looking things give it a shot and see what you get, that's far more interesting than passing up a neat picture while crapping out over some stupid grain! cheers, Dr. ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "nicolas vigier" <boklm at mars-attacks.org> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 12:31 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Walking in Antwerpen at night > On Tue, 31 Aug 2010, tedgrant at shaw.ca wrote: > >> >> nicolas vigier showed: >> Subject: [Leica] Walking in Antwerpen at night >> >> >>> Hello, >>> A few pictures I took while walking in Antwerpen one evening : >>> http://boklm.eu/pg/antwerpen_night.html >> >> Hi Nicolas >> What I really like about these is they completely illustrate what I've >> said >> so many times: >> >> "If you can see it, you can shoot it." >> >> Good on you as most people would walk around and figure...
