[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 122771, member: 13090"] Well, there are several ways to approach this but the *simplest* (not necessarily the *best* and certainly not the *only* way) would be to use Program Mode and set your minimum shutter speed in the ISO Sensitivity menu to something that you feel confident will handle the fast action of sporting events. I'm assuming your models will be less of an issue in this regard. For "Burst" mode you simply turn on "Continuous" for the shutter button function. Look into the [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007E3PSGW/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8psc=1"]Yongnuo YN-468 II[/URL]. Lens are measured in millimeters with lower numbers having wider fields of view, larger numbers indicate "telephoto" lenses and ranges "zoom" lenses. 50mm is considered "normal" perspective. For wide angle you probably want something in the 18mm to 24mm range. For zooming 200-300mm is pretty standard. You can get one lens that goes from 18-300 but it won't be cheap. I wouldn't worry about any of these, personally. Take a deep breath and relax. Well how important could it be? It only holds your photo's until you download them to your computer, right? Transcend is a good brand. Don't be afraid to reformat the card, often, in camera; it will prevent problems with corruption. Cheers. P.S. Send Hoegaarden, Cote d'Or Noir de Noir in quantity, and as soon as possible, please and thank you. [/QUOTE]
