I love the low light quality of my GSN. Here is one I took at a wedding. I was not shooting it but the PRO could not shoot during the candle lit part as the bride requested no flash Her new Gee Whiz 2000 digital was useless with an f4.5 lens :D Shot with Kodak Tri-X 400 and f1.7
 
I also love 'available darkness'-shots - check my gallery for lots of those (though the ones scanned from negs, not from prints, are handicapped by lots of scanner noise...)

Here are two of mine, shot with a contax IIIa + Sonnar 50/1.5 on Delta3200. The first one was probably f/2 and 1/50-1/100 s; the second one, f/1.5,1/10 s (supported by a table).
 
Embers glowing in the evening after a duplex burned down. (Bronica RF, 65mm, NPZ.)
 
Here is one that may count as a low light shot. Contax IIA with 21mm f4.5 Biogon. Fuji film I think and f5.6 for 20 seconds or so.

I normally shoot B&W film for available-light shots, but here's one I took in colour at the recent RFF Gathering in Toronto. Zorki 3M, CV 25/4, 1/25 @ f/4, Kodak HD400.

I have a question? Why are all the photos blocking up on my monitor? Is it just me. It does not do it on any other site except this one and photography corner
 
Okay on mine. BTW, I just noticed this was a "Yashica" thread. Sorry about that!
 
Hmmm so it is. If you get to threads from "Recent Threads" it's easy to get in on all kinds of stuff that you didn't mean to. I'll go scrounge some gsn pics. On the subject, I took some available light color at the fireworks on July 4th. Fireworks turned out far better than I hoped (I mostly planned to shoot the folks I came with, and try a few fireworks for context - I ended up having a bunch of film left when it got too dark for anything else.)

One shot however that didn't turn out so well baffles me. There are no visible light sources to fool the meter. It's about dusk, and it's underexposed. I was shooting Kodak 800, and the rest were great. But I expected to get well exposed blurry shots rather than underexposed shots with the GSN in bad light. Kind of suprised me.

Ooops, I had not noticed either...
But then, some of mine were shot with a Yashica Lynx! Phew! ;)

I always use the main page of the site with the most recent post all toghether. I didn't even know there was a Yashica forum! To me, RFF is one single forum, all topics mixed together.
 
Yes, that's the was I use RFF - unfortunately, that leads to multi-brand GAS...

My experience is the same as Marc's. I only notice the forum a thread belongs to if I specifically look for that info at the top of the window. And on occasion I've gone to the Forum listing when searching for an older thread.
 
Here's a photo of Ryley sharing his bed with our new kitten Fiona.
Shot with my GSN and Ilford 3200 @ 1/30 (flash setting). I don't remember the aperture but I'd assume wide open. The light was evening sun coming through a window about 12' away.

Me to. :D This one is not "real" low light but enough to demonstrate the excellent autoexposure capabilities of the GT. Of course the Kodachrome 200 helped. :D
