Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sandpatch" data-source="post: 453219" data-attributes="member: 10543">I went for a walk with the family this evening as darkness encroached.  I set my D5100 to 'S' wanting to stop the action as best I could, but 1/30 was the fastest I could do.  Several minutes later at a different location with perhaps better light, I switched to Auto and found myself able to shoot at 1/125 @ f/5.6 as seen here with the geese.  Was it merely the change of location that allowed me 1/125 or does switching to Auto bypass some sort of limit (ASA?) that I may have set in my camera?  Maybe too I was just not thinking, which seems to be happening more these days.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />  Thank you.[ATTACH]157247[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
