Low-ISO night photography with the LX3


Night scenery, originally uploaded by jiihaa.

Photography seems to be a kind of therapy on days like this. Late this evening we went for a short walk with the children, and I took the LX3 with me. I took a couple of photos with the camera on a tripod, trying out ISO 100 sensitivity at 4 s exposures. The results were quite good, very different from the ISO 200-800 experiments. Now I feel that night photography can be done rather nicely with the LX3.

This photo was taken with Panasonic LX3, exposure 4s, f/2.0, ISO 100. It was windy so the movement of the trees caused some fuzziness. But noise is well in control.
