[QUOTE="crycocyon, post: 139700, member: 13076"] The 18-55 is the faster lens so with the lower amount of light, it will provide faster shutter speeds. Make a point of bracing yourself against anything...fence, post, etc. so that you can minimize camera shake. Shoot wide open on each lens to isolate the animals against backgrounds or even glass or fence foregrounds. Also shoot as tight as you can to make the animals seem as much as possible in a natural environment. If you can adjust exposure compensation, try underexposing by 1/3rd stop to give you a bit of extra shutter speed and reduce distracting highlights in photos when the sun does manage to peek out. And most of all, enjoy yourself! [/QUOTE]
