Any more tips for night shooting?

You should just set your lens to infinity for the focus. Infinity is the symbol on the lens that looks like a figure 8, but some lenses don't show it on the barrel. If it does show it, your lens may go past it a touch (a lot of lenses do, but some stop right at infinity). If it goes past it, hopefully it has a line showing you where infinity focus actually is, but sometimes getting it right in the middle of the infinity symbol is all you can do if they don't give you a line.
