[QUOTE="carguy, post: 238547, member: 12521"] Wayne & Glenn, your comments reflect what someone on facebook commented. I higher fstop would have helped keeping everyone in focus in the shot with people opening presents, then it dawned on me... I was in Aperture Priority shooting these. My thought was carried over from shooting my son playing hockey using a variable aperture lens. I wanted to use as LOW a number as I could due to the low lighting in the arena. Shooting these with on camera flash, I should have gone to manual and stepped up the fstop. This would take the variable aperture lens out of the equation and I could have shot consistently. Maybe F9 or so? That would have allowed me to shoot higher ISO rightr? Maybe 400 or 800 correct? Learning. Learning. Learning :) [/QUOTE]
