[Leica] IMG - A Night at the Opera

[Charlie Chan]

Bob,

Thanks. The M9 is pretty good really in low light. You just have to use it like a film camera. Guys like Brassai, Doisneau and Kertesz shot many night scenes using film, which can’t have been rated more than ISO200. This was shot at ISO640 (where the M9 noise is not too intrusive) and hand held at 1/30th at F2.4.

Even my DMR can shoot low light. I do it all the time in concerts. I just shoot it at ISO400 with a steady hand.

Best wishes,

Charlie
