[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 10076, member: 1573"] To answer your question quickly, I'll tell you how I handle this. If depth of field is important, I shoot aperature mode --small aperature(e.g. f/22) for great depth, and big(e.g. f/2.8) for shallow. If there's action involved and I want to stop it, I shoot shutter priority ( 1/250 or higher). If you're using flash, you can't go higher than 1/250 (well, you can on some cameras, but you get weird effects). If you're in a low-light situation such as a club, you'll need to up the iso first of all and then decide what look you're going for. I agree with everybody else that you need to give us more info before we can be more specific. It would also help if you posted a photo. Hopefully this helps some until then. By the way, kudos to you for not being in program mode:-) (I'm assuming the D3000 has that) Best Regards [/QUOTE]
