[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 503183, member: 9240"] Read this, it's good for you. [url]https://photographylife.com/iso-shutter-speed-and-aperture-for-beginners[/url] I've shot hummingbirds in flight and not felt the need to get up to 1/4000s, so that's the heart of your problem, as has been said. Aperture? At 29mm you're going to get everything from 5 feet to infinity in focus at f14, and only need to shoot at 1/60s or better to prevent movement and could likely render just about any movement unseeable at 1/500s (guess). Get a handle on exactly what each of those 3 settings does for you and then work from the most important factor to the least for the shot. [/QUOTE]
