I have a question for all you hardcore photographers out there. I have to shoot a "low key" (Black subject/Black background) photo for my photo class, so I was going to shoot my charcoal grey Odyssey at about midnight in a empty parking lot however, I'm going to need to use a shutter speed longer than 1 sec so the built in light meter won't work. At an aperture of F/16 how long of a shutter speed should I use? There are a few streetlamps around but there isn't much of a moon so please take that into account as well. Would it be better if I just use an F/1.4 and a faster shutter speed? I would rather not do that since the depth of field would be really shallow but I can only use a maximum of a ten second exposure since I don't have a shutter release cable to keep vibration down while pushing and releasing the button.
Thanks, David
