- Fast Moving Kids/Pets. Should I use shutter priority? Is there a rule
for stopping action like the 1/Focal Length rule for hand holding shots?
Should I use Auto ISO to give the camera more room to adjust?
- Moon Shots. Explain why using "Sunny 16" rule works for the moon.
- Blurring Moving Water. Using a tripod plus slow shutter for that sharp
landscape, soft waterfall look.
Just a few off the top of my head :)
