So again..lots to learn...So the 300S is more complex in the setup that previous units I have used...I will start with the atmosphere to ensure I have covered it properly where I had the most problems...medium to low light...subjects I was shooting at generally were dead center 4-8 feet away and there were usually other people standing in the foreground or more often background. Most were generally still. And the problem I had was not blurring it was simplly out of focus or focused on the wrong thing..I had some of each.So on the settings...D300S defaulted to 3200 ISO often..based on the available light. I was on shutter priority mode and set the shutter to 1/120 most of the time to freeze minor movement. I avoided the flash as all I have is the 400 low profile model and it wants to do the red eye reduction before each picture and just in general slows down my ability to shoot quickly. Under Autofocus...- AF-C priority selection set to focus (other options are release or release + focus)- AF-S priority selection set to focus (other option is release)- Dynamic AF Area is set to 21 points (other options are 9, 51, 51 3d tracking)- Focus Tracking with lock-on is set to short (other options is long, normal, off)- Af Activation is set to shutter/AF-on (other option is AF-on only)- AF Point illumination set to on (other option Auto, off)- Focus Point wrap-around set to no wrap (other option wrap)- AF Point Selection set to 51 points (other option 11 points)- Built in AF-assist illuminator on (other option off) you guys see anything wrong so far?</blockquote>
