[QUOTE="Viktor, post: 198824, member: 16683"] Well applying the knowledge I've gathered so far, to "freeze the action" I'm using "S", to get some depth of field I use "A". The problem is, I've used Auto and Auto (Flash off) and the results are roughly the same or worse. At some point I thought the camera was malfunctioning... but obviously that's "newbie" syndrome. Auto focus I am using it to AF-S for most of the shots and AF-C for when I have a target on sight that needs constant focus. ISO is set auto-off and most of the shots I tried taking them with no less than 400 being that day a bit cloudy at first but gradually brightened. Also, for Don Kuykendall, yes I mostly use Denoise to slightly sharpen the images but no other PP. I use Photoshop just for cropping and basic stuff. My hands shake much and it wasn't until today that I got my tripod. So yeah all those shots were "punishingly handheld". [/QUOTE]
