I'll try and remember to post the photos tonight or tomorrow.

I haven't played with the ISO yet - i was so disappointed with the auto mode and the night scene mode that i kind of lost heart. Night scene seems to have a really long exposure, too long for me to be able to keep still. i know you need a longer exposure for night but this is about 4 seconds long.

I was hoping i'd be able to take simple night scenes without adjusting the settings - and adjust the settings only when it's something more complicated.

Interchangeable lens cameras tend to have a lot more flexibility than most point and shoot cameras.  Unfortunately, that means that the cameras require more work to use optimally, vs point and shoots.  I suspect you may be running into this with this camera.
