You’re probably going to end up doing time exposures of say 2 or 3 seconds to gather enough light.
You’ll need a tripod, and you’ll need to use your 10-second timer because even the motion of you
pushing he release button will cause blur.
This is what I would do with my XS. This depends of course on if you have people – because they will blur when they move. If you just shooting the alter and inside the building I would do this.
I’d set up on manual, about 3 seconds at f/5.6 and ISO 200. Using the 10 second timer, on my tripod I’d fire a look. If it’s too dark set to 4 second and try again. Just experiment and see what’s best.
Good Luck, Jim
