here's how i would go about it. using autofocus, get your primary focus (again, using street lamps, signs, something with a bit of contrast) then once that is set, get a small bit of blu-tak and stick that onto you lens so that it 'joins' your focus ring and lens body together, this will stop any lens slop from awkward angles and movement, then switch your lens to 'manual focus'

that's essentially focus lock. your camera won't be looking for focus before taking the shot.

simple
