Hey! Well i've started using my Parents Nikon D200 for the buns, but some of the pics come out blurry, and we don't think we have it on the right settings.

What settings do you use for taing pics Pebbles and Bebe?

You do have a D200, right, lol?

Yes I have the Nikon D200. And the newNikon D300. :upsidedown:

There is a C-S-Mswitch on thefront left side of the camera by the lens. Keep it on S for the camera to focus before you take a picture.
It stands for AF-S, or Single Auto Focus. That is the first thing I would check, but I need more info if your pictures are still blurry.

Great, thanks so much!

I also made the ISO to 250, instead of 200, that seemed to help alot!

I just changed it to S, it was on C. The battery is charging, but i'll let you know how they come out when I take some more later !

Sorry to keep bugging you about this, but how do I change the shutterspeed?

Sometimes it will auto focus, then take the actual picture 5 seconds later.

Also, nothing is coming up on the viewfinder. I have to look through the eyepiece the whole time, hehe.

Itis a DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex). You have to look through the eyepiece to take pictures.

The simplest to start taking pictures right away is to set the camera in P (Program Mode). The camera will choose the shutter speed and aperture. Be sure there is plenty of light.
For auto focus to work, press the shutter release down half way. This will activate and lock the focus. Wait until you hear the camera beep, then you can press the shutterbutton all the way down to take the picture.

Here is the instruction manual.
