[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 584013, member: 16844"] Welcome to Nikonites I have read the recommendations here and while all make sense they would confuse the hell out of me if I was starting out like you. So I may as well add to the confusion ... Definitely set your camera to manual mode. Set ISO to 100 Aperture to f5.6 Shutter speed to 1/200 Set your flash to half power If your photos are blurry on these settings it is one of two things:Your technique or your subject is super duper fast and you are stuffed (basically beacuse of the sync speed and you may have to go to high speed sync. For his you need to refer to your manual and your flash manual) If photos too bright close the aperture or turn the power of the flash down. If depth of field is too shallow close the aperture and increase the power of the flash to compensate or move the flash closer to the subject. If the photos are underexposed either increase (open) the aperture - at the risk of reducing depth of field or Up the flash power or moe the flash closer. Hey nobody said it was easy but we all agree it does get easier. :) [/QUOTE]
