[QUOTE="Wolfeye, post: 461988, member: 29166"] Well, if the autofocus is working properly, blur is caused by one thing: motion (either by the subject or the camera). Assuming the lenses are image stabilized, in your limited time frame, here's what I'd do. 1. Set the camera to ISO 6400 if this is an indoor shoot, or 1600 outside 2. Make sure the camera is in S mode for shutter-preferred automatic exposure. 3. Set the shutter speed to 1/500 second 4. Do not use the flash Your images will have some noise from the high ISO, but any blur caused by motion should be minimized. They may also be slightly dark if you're shooting in a dimly lit location, but it's better to have a dark image that you can tweak on the computer than a blurry one that you really can't do much with.
