You'll need to figure out the correct shutter to use and then adjust your aperture to compensate for the likely underexposure that will be caused by having a fast shutter speed.Once you've really learnt how important aperture and shutter speed are, you'll never need to ask what settings to use again.  Good luck and be sure to show us your results!</blockquote>
