yeah gogo is rite..
when IS is turn on there will be moving internal parts in your camera that moves,,,and you would not want it to move when u are on a tripod..
if
you got mirror lockup function turn it on to further reduce any vibration from your camera...(if u use oly slr)long shutter speed at night,,just go with the lowest iso...and yeah turn on noise reduction too...noise reduction is different from noise filter (applicable for olympus camera only)
This is the bengang part.. how come (not aware about others) Canon for instance.... don't make MLU available as a shortcut. Have to dig so deep into it.

Using P&S for so many years. Only now have to play around with aperture and shutter. Still a long way to go before get a dslr. Thanks for explanation and tips.
As the other folks explained... the SOP on tripod... base ISO, aperture sekucup rasa (lens dependant... @f8 or whichever sharpest to cover fore and background.. though M43 dof is quite big so that's less of a problem), MLU if available, Turn off stabilization, use remote cord or use timer instead of pressing shutter button and personal preference is usually I dial in a bit of -EV for more contrastly look.
Oh.. and for the Victoria Peak Tram pic.. since you're metering outside.. the tram and white walled house.. can also use lower ISO. For GF1.. even though I don't have one (my collegues constantly poison me with his).. Try to keep ISO low for cleaner images if shooting jpeg.
