This is what started me thinking about the K-5 and low light cameras.
Went with friend to Treasure Island to take pics of San Francisco. I had
never been there before, but I had googled and found it had the best view of
SF. I wanted to do this at the Ft. Point NorCal meet, but practically no
one else did. Mainly bridge logistics.
Well, the view was FANTASTIC!
Only once I got there I discovered my quick release plate was not with me.

self-lambast, self-not-speaking-to-self.)
So had to shoot without a tripod. Shot at 1600 ISO at 1/15. The only half
way decent shots I got was before it got completely dark. The rest have way
too much noise.

But the view was fantastic. Even with fog.

Well that's just fabulous, despite technical hassles. I love the colour
and light in that image. You have just *got* to get back there with a
tripod when it looks like that again. Just wow.
BTW, I'm wondering why you don't just leave your QR plate attached
permanently? I have one on each body and they've never left them since I
first screwed them on.
