[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 181433, member: 13090"] Welcome to the conundrum photographers face so often: balancing shutter speed, aperture and ISO; also known as the Exposure Triangle. In this instance it's critical to keep faces in focus so your depth of field is going to have to increase and that means using a smaller aperture... At least that's how I interpret this scenario. But, because of the smaller aperture you will need to adjust another part of your Exposure Triangle to [I]compensate[/I] for the now reduced amount of light coming through the smaller aperture we've determined you need for that deeper depth of field. Luckily you have some options. You could use flash to put more light on the scene, you could just use the slower shutter speed that comes with a smaller aperture but use a tripod to steady the shot or you could increase the ISO and put up with the increased noise.
