[QUOTE="zx7dave, post: 1262, member: 257"] Danny if you are shooting indoors your camera will automatically choose a lower F/stop so that it can offer you the best shutter speed depending on what lens you have. If you are shooting with a zoom lens that has a f/stop between 3.5-5.6 then that is most likely your problem with depth of field. Try a fixed lens such as the 35mm or 50mm 1.4 or 1.8 F/Stop and you will allow much more light through the lens. After that if you wantgood depth of field you want to set your camera on "A" like Curt said and then rotate your dial and you will watch your depth of field go up and your shutter speed go down..keep doing that till you are near the minimum shutter speed that you can hold the camera steady at usually 1/15 to 1/60. You should have good depth of field except in very dimly lit rooms. Tripod is another great option if you want to stay with your zoom....good luck... [/QUOTE]
