I would recommend setting the camera mode on "Program" and then you can dial in the shutter speed and/or the f/stop combination you need for the shot. This will also allow you to dial up or down the f/stop to put the background in or out of focus as needed for the shot. The ISO setting will depend on how much daylight you have to work with and what range you need on the program mode. And as has been recommended go to the site the day before to see what you will be working with. Also go early on shoot day to the location to check out the stage lighting and pick out possible shooting spots.</p></blockquote><p></p>
