Re: long-time exposures with *istD

[Herb Chong]

this scene was beyond the lower end of the metering capability of the 
camera. it stopped at the lowest level that it could compute a measurement 
for. you have to manually calculate exposure with this little light. 
multisegment metering had nothing to do with it.

Here is an example where I had to over-expose by 3 stops (that's the 
beauty
of digital - I made repeated exposures with different exposure comp 
settings
until it looked about right on the preview screen).  When this was taken I
had just purchased the *istD and had plenty of opportunity to use it in
picturesque Japan.
