I timed my next flight to be during sunset (sad to say, but it's a 55 minute flight and leaves at 3:42PM ) Anyway, I got a window seat behind the wing on the side of the plane that will face west so I can get some pretty shots.
Last week, I took a night flight and realized after the pictures came out terribly (because of super-slow shutter speeds) that I was shooting on 200 ISO. How can I figure out what the best ISO for a dusk shot will be, so I can have the fastest shutter speed possible without compromising quality (or at least averaging the two).
I'm using a Nikon D70, and will have the Nikor 18-55mm lens on.

Quoting JeffM (Reply 1): Easy. Raise the ISO until you can support the shutter speed / Aperture combination you want to use.
Is there a reason not to just go to the highest setting (I think it's either 800 or 1600)? What exactly are the ramifications of raising the ISO speed?
