My first time shoot with the Canon EOS 70D at night. Using a Canon 50MM 1.8. I did not take the ISO above 1600. All I did in post is adjust the white balance. Only my second time shooting with it. Might need to get a lens hood.

Yes, consider a lens hood, perhaps even a matte box with French flag and side shades.

And you may also want to consider getting a good, fluid head tripod. Jerky pans really take away from production value.

Thanks Charles. We are learning and trying to build up the gear.

That's how we all learned... by making mistakes. I still make them.
