Hi
I am the proud owner of a D3100 been keen on getting into photography for ages.
Anyhow, I've had my camera for over a week and have been taking some great pics in Aperture priority mode.
Yesterday i wanted to take some backlit pictures of my children and was playing with metering modes and got some ok pictures. But on finishing up I noticed that when I was in aperture priority mode the aperture was static whilst turning the lens and the shutter speed was changing as I was turning.
I have been through all the menus it seems and I have done both 'reset' options but still when I turn the lens in A mode the shutter speed changes but the f.stop number stays the same. Probably why I'm not getting as sharp pictures.
Any ideas? Am a complete newbie by the way and I think I have reset all my options, but I've clearly flicked something, somewhere....
TIA
