It time.......


Basically you'll need a tripod, or a pair of very very very steady hands, then decide what to take.

Next, aim at the target and shoot!

I am not a Olympus user but I can give you some tips

- if you are taking night city shot , go during weekday where there are more office windows lighting
- use a tripod <-- stable type
- use remote control to trigger the shutter
- set to Manual mode
- use settings like 1 sec + f2.8 , 2 sec + f4.0 , 3 sec + f5.6

experiment! test out the various settings and understand the limitations of the DC for niteshots.

You need to set WB else it might turn out too red.

Abt 90 ~ 120 shots, with flashes in between.

What factors will cost more batteries power?

And then how much does the DC power adapter cost?

[siewsphone]

Could I use GP Powerbank II charger to recharge 1800mAh rechargeable batteries?

Thanks
