[QUOTE="hark, post: 216375, member: 13196"] Yes, you need to adjust the aperture which *should* be a camera setting, not a lens setting. Try for f/8 to f/11 with a reasonably fast shutter speed if you want to freeze any action. If the shutter speed is too slow to freeze the action, then you need to raise your ISO. And if your first lens was a wide angle lens, they do tend to offer sharper focus than telephoto lenses. That's due to the actual physical diameter of the aperture which is too in depth for me to explain right now. If you are using a telephoto lens, you need to be AT LEAST at f/8 or higher. My guess is you switched from wide angle to telephoto. ;) [/QUOTE]
