These pocket cameras are nice but they are not that great for night shots or distance shots. The main reason is the little lens and a weak flash. That said many of these units have a "night mode". It will keep the shutter open but you need to remain very still, as mentioned above you need a tripod. That is normally good for fixed objects or the moon but not moving (or posed) people at night. They normally have another mode that indicates a dark background and lit subject. Try this, I have gotten away with some decent shots. The flash is only good for a few feet. Don't try and take a photo of someone fishing down the beach aways because it will come out black. For best results get as close as you can without zooming use the flash. Then fix any red eye later.

The below was taken at night with a little handheld dig. The resolution was reduced alot for positing here but you get the idea.
