[QUOTE="smm4sa, post: 477501, member: 40216"] Thanks everyone! I am just using the automatic setting for action shots. 9 times out of 10 it actually does a great job (probably mostly with sunlight out). I do have basic photography understanding (took the course in college) but it was on a Minolta regular camera versus a digital camera. I know the lower the ISO the more light that it allows into the camera. So maybe I just need to be in manual mode and set the ISO to where it needs to be. My greatest concern though is I noticed that the autofocus though is rarely centered and whatever position it is in it usually stays for all my photos. Whether it is upper center, left center, etc. I've tried resetting the camera and sometimes it works but mostly doesn't. So I wasn't sure if there was a way that I can get it back to be centered. My subjects are always center on the camera, so would rather focus on horse/rider than the trees or jump filler :) [/QUOTE]
