Doh! Looking at the metadata of one of my pictures from the night shoot, I had left the exposure compensation to +3.3 when I was testing the settings earlier in the day!!
Did I add unnecessary noise to pictures??
What a noob...:lol:

Hmmm thanks Mike, the instructor really made it sound like I was missing something by not having it. I wonder if it would have made a different with a lot of my shots.

Thank you! I attended Eric Gould's "Postcard Workshop" which was 1 hr of instruction and 5 hrs of shooting at 5 different locations.
Postcard Workshop - San Francisco Night Photography
The price is actually $95, I can forward a coupon email I got if you're interested.
Mike also does workshops, which would be awesome to take!
You can get some amazing shots driving along the North side of the Golden Gate Bridge up to Hawk Hill. Can't wait to get back up there!

During the workshop, the instructor mentioned using the camera's highlight indicator, or "blinkies" when viewing our histograms. I brought my manual and I searched just about every page trying to find this feature. I guess all the Canikons have it because I was the only one that couldn't find it.
Kind of felt awkward...

Very kind, thank you! Using a K-5 and editing RAW files, it's hard to mess up! Even shots with bad exposure, I was able to make look halfway decent.
My composition needs work, no camera can help me there :mad:

Thank you! Is it cheating if you edit with Lightroom? I think i had the white balance on auto and it wasn't brining out the colors on the original RAW.
most were taken with my fifty and I used my 300mm to zoom in on the transamerica through the golden gate bridge. I decided to just bring and use all my lenses :)

So I dropped my K-x which broke the LCD...really bummed about that :(
This was short lived after picking up a K-5 IIs just in time for my night shoot in SF!
These are my first ever night photos, thanks for looking :)

You could save a few bucks if you wait, but think of all that time you could have been enjoying the camera! Can't put a price on that

I think I will upgrade if I can't fix it. Loved the red color, but I'll get over that.

Who's CHRIS? Sounds promising, I'm hoping something got jarred loose and just needs to be set again. Hmmm i could open it up and see if i can do it myself...
If I can't fix, I'll probably get another one, but I've been eyeballing that k-5 iis. I bought a lens from someone that had one it was really nice!

Get a 10 stop neutral density filter for some great daylight shots!

Dont drop your camera :(
This is an excellent book! I just finished reading it, I especially found the "Sky Brothers" section helpful.
