I would suggest you don't do this yet until you understand exactly what you need to make these pictures happen. Having too much saved can get confusing.Object of the game is you need a shutter speed just fast enough to stop the action. This will vary depending on the action. Setting it too fast is a waste of light if things aren't moving too fast. Something faster than 1/focal length is a starting point. Lens will need be wide open due to low light. Auto iso will help you out here. I suggest either shutter priority with auto iso or manual mode with auto iso. Either way, you pick that minimum shutter speed that gets you by and the lens gets set wide open. Either shutter priority will open the lens wide open or in manual, just set it to your lowest aperture. Of these two ways, I would go with manual mode. Set the aperture to the lowest and play with the shutter speed to freeze the motion. Auto iso will rise up to make your choice of shutter and aperture give the right exposure. Others might suggest different modes. In the end its all the same, you just need to understand what needs to happen to make a correct exposure under these less than ideal conditions. Again... Lens wide open, shutter speed fast enough to stop the action and auto iso turned on so that iso can adjust itself and satisfy the exposure triangle. As iso gets higher, your images will show more noise. you can cap auto iso, but I would not do that yet. Experiment first. A noisy picture is better than no picture.</blockquote>
