I want to know is there any way I can take distance night shots with my Kodak Z700? I want to take some "lights at night" photos but all I manage is black images. Or do I have to think about buying some other digital camera. I dont want to become a professional, just want to take the occasional distance night shots. The Kodak takes good close up night shots but fails dismally for distance ones at night. :~

you'll need a tripod or some other way of holding the camera still for 15 seconds or more
reading the onine camera manual at http://wwwau.kodak.com/global/en/service/tutorials/index.jhtml?pq-path=4688 you need to set the dial selector to SCN (for Scene select mode) and then use the controler to select the Night Landscape mode


good luck
