Tips for Taking Great Photos at Night
Part 2
by Patty Hankins and Bill Lawrence

8. Bring your cell phone. Remember, you're going to be out in the dark, having a cell phone with you for emergencies is only common sense. If you're going out with another photographer, it helps if you both have phones with you. That way -- if you get separated, it's much easier to find one another in the dark.

Bill and I learned this lesson the hard way -- we were taking photos at an event, it got dark, and we spent at least half an hour wandering around looking for one another in the dark before we reconnected.

9. Bring a flashlight. A pocket flash light is a great tool to have when you're doing photography. Not only can it light up your camera dials so you can see how your camera is set, it can also help light the path on the way back to the car. For more information on the pocket flash lights we use, see your article on the topic in our newsletter archives.

Setting your camera:

The more control you have over the settings on your camera, the more likely you are to be able to take good night photos. If camera only has automatic settings, you may have some real challenges convincing it to let you take your photos.

10. Turn off the flash. Most on-camera flashes only light up an area five to six feet in front of the camera. What happens at night, is that it may overexpose anything in the foreground, and underexpose the main subject of the photo .

11. Use higher speed film or set the ISO higher on your digital camera if you need a faster shutter speed. The higher the ISO/ASA, the shorter the exposures you can get away with.

If your exposure is planned at ISO 100 for 2 seconds at F8.0 - using ISO 400, you can do a 1/2 second exposure at the same F8.0. Some digital cameras show higher than usual noise levels for long exposures -- it is worth checking if your camera has a long exposure noise reduction feature.

12. Understand what your camera's light metering system will do -- or meter separately and use manual settings on your camera. Modern consumer cameras, particularly the higher level ones, tend to have sophisticated metering systems but night time photography involves tricky lighting situations, with very bright and dark areas in the same photo.

Understanding what your light meter is making its readings from, and the type of exposure you are likely to get, will ensure properly exposed photos. If you're not getting the photos you want with the automatic metering, take control by either setting the camera manually or using exposure compensation. If you have a digital camera with a histogram function, use this to help understand how well your metering is working.
