[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 479570, member: 13090"] It is pretty essential to keep the shutter speed at twice the focal length of the lens you are shooting when using a DX body; so yes...

Some people say you can use a shutter speed of one-and-a-half times the focal length but I find it's easier and more effective to simply double the number.
