    Did a photoshoot of some friends bikes last night. This was my first time taking low light pics, and actually messing with my camera. I also realized how much I need a tripod. any advice and comments welcome. camera was a canon S3IS.

                            LOL! Ya, I took some with a normal exposure time and they turned out really dark to the point were you could only identify that it was a bike, no colors or anything. I added more exposure time for these pics so they wouldnt be so dark. with more exposure the camera get really sensitive to movement.

                                        by adjusting the white balance u are basicaly telling the camera what is "white" do to there being many different types of light sources each casting different colors of light

                                        can u see how everything is yellow in the pics? well by not setting a the white balance the camera thinks the yellow light from the street lights is what "white" is
                                        making every other color basically look like poop

                                        easiest/fastest way ive found with my s3is is to press the "func" botton, the second choice down has preset white balance to choose from, scroll to eval. white balance focus on something white in color like a peice of paper and press set. it may take more then 1 time to get it to look right. theres another trick that ive used before just take a white coffe filter over the lens and point the camera at the light source and set the white balance

                                        u basically have to tell the camera what "white" is

                                          Ur kinda right, you dont exactly have to tell the camera what white is you just have to calibrate it for the light you are shooting in at the time. Most of the time this is done by simply shooting a grey card in the same light as your shooting in. A grey card is just a piece of card board colored grey with 18% reflectance across the visible spectrum. Select the picture with grey card in it and use ur "eval" function on the gray card and its set. Doing this will set ur white balance and correct the color for all the shots in that shoot. For his shoot he should of just changed his white balance to one of the preset white balance setting like tungsten, fluorescent, and daylight. For those pictures tungsten is what you should have used. Another thing for shooting at night, if you dont have a tripod never go lower than 1/125sec for hand held, also try raising ur ISO (film speed) as high as you can without getting a lot of noise and sacrificing quality.
