[QUOTE="CinnamonEnglish, post: 7514, member: 2776"] Hi there, a dear friend of mine has asked me to take photos of her daughter's birth. I want/need a 35mm/f1.8 to do this for a few reasons-- babies can be born FAST and I don't want to miss any good shots, the low lighting factor, the close range (I'll be standing behind her shoulders). I live in a country where the prices for Nikon lenses are *ridiculous.* I did some price checking last night and the 35mm is literally triple the price I could get it on amazon.com. Triple!!! Not an option for me. So, my question is: Using ONLY the D3000 and the standard lens, what do you think are my best setting/mode options? Thanks for the advice! [/QUOTE]
