VR - Vibration Reduction Click that link. It's main function is to lessen camera blur due to hand shake.

QUOTE(FallInLov3 @ Aug 20 2009, 04:52 PM) Stobism XD 1. Smaller aperture (Higher "f" NUMBER) means that less light is getting into the camera.Wanna see what lights can effect on the objects ah.... Speedlight fire from different locations, built in flash as fill flash.... wanna try those settings kakakaka But still a noob to photography and DSLR, alot to learn  1 question : at 18mm or 105mm got vigenatting(dark corners), increasing the f value(let say f8), but when increasing the value of f, means the shuttle speed need to reduce/increase ISO speed ? Because i everytime tried felt that light is not enough, firing flash will help? 2. To counter this and make proper exposure especially in low light, you need to increase ISO and/or reduce shutter speed. Make sure that the shutter speed is high enough to avoid ghosting. Happy shooting. You might also be interested in slow shutter pics...

So meaning there's no other option without tripod + hand shake, shutter speed will be very limited as only way just to increase ISO ? 2.

Added on August 21, 2009, 6:33 am great.. but overexposed at the right side. yup..using nd with two flash combination would be better but costly la. Perhaps should take some noice picture see see what's the effect haha. |

The shutter speed depends on the kind of pic you are taking-the subject.
Set at least 1/30 shutter speed and turn on the AUTO ISO settings. See manual for AUTO ISO if you dont know. Take shots and do some testing on your own, but make sure that you TURN OFF VR if you put your D90 on a tripod. D90 has a low noise at high ISO like 1600..and even 3200 compared to others like D40/D60/D80 etc.. |

After you know what's what.. u dont need to use M most of the time..
Use A or S... I use A (Aperture priority) 95% of the time to get a sharp focus for people's faces at at least f/5.6 for weddings etc. Use S for shots like F1, panning, people jumping, acrobatic, running and other things that usually involves speed. A lot of people are: Wasting their time in M mode when they should be in A mode -OR- Wasting their time in A mode when they should be in P mode This post has been edited by alpha_company: Aug 21 2009, 10:36 AM |

I usually shoot in P. When needed I change to A or S depending on scene. M is only when I shoot night-sky or lightning (yet to try fireworks though). Most of the time when I shoot I have little time to fiddle with settings or the moment will pass, thats why i trust P mode of the Nikon.
