[QUOTE="zbrandt, post: 179956, member: 15808"] I'm still fairly new to DSLR, but so far I've gotten excellent results with my D3200. I just have the 18-55mm lens that came with the camera and recently picked up a AF-S DX VR 55-200mm G ED lens. Two types of photography I've always loved - macro and high speed / stop motion. However, I don't understand why my shutter speed is restricted to a max of 1/200 when using the built in flash, and apparently using an external flash unit will make no difference. Under what circumstances would I ever be able to use anything above 1/1000 without using a flash? (I prefer to mostly use a low ISO of 400 and below). Would a low-light lens make a difference or is the 1/4000 setting a useless feature? [/QUOTE]
