Set your ISO to AUTO with a maximum of 2400.

Oh, I'm definitely going back and experiment a bit more. I know there's plenty room for improvement but for a first attempt I'm pretty pleased. Any and all feedback is muchly appreciated!Nikon Shooter wrote: I mean how much is needed, enough, too much to convey a feeling

Cheers mate. I will be going back there this coming Saturday and take detailed notes of eveything setting I use. NS's advice let me realise I can use mixed settings i.e. auto and manual settings; pretty much what you're suggesting too.Ozzie_Traveller wrote: G'day sf
Regarding 'auto-ISO'
By you (via the menu) setting two things .... "ISO=Auto" plus "ISO maximum = xxx" where xxx is your choice (mine is 800, NS above suggests 2400) it allows the camera to increase the ISO from 100 (ie- normal) to another number -if- the light level -or- your shutter + aperture settings need a bit more 'grunt' in difficult light levels - it is all to keep the exposure correct
In practice, I discover that my exposures (after setting either "A" Aperture mode or "S" Shutter mode for my photos, the camera does the rest - but as I examine the ISO later, I see all of 100 or 125 or 160 or 200 or 400 or 800 sort of thing, as the camera has looked after the ISO setting while I have enjoyed myself taking photos
Hope this helps

So far the results have been a bit of a mixed bag although there is definitely an improvement from one session to the next. I took my first action shot on Saturday (a train). Screwed up the ISO bigtime but am happy with the shutter speed.
