Hi, need some serious advice here. I just got my D40 with 18-200VR lens. I now realise that with this not so fast lens, I have difficulty getting sharp shots of my 10 month old baby indoors!
I have tried varying all the settings, willing to go up to ISO800 but with the largest aperture setting, I am still have to shoot at 1/20 to 1/40 shutter. I don't have an external flash and dislike the "flashed" look. With baby growing up really quickly and with 1000 different expressions a minute, I really want to capture them all! Help!
I tried my friend's AF 28mm 2.8 prime lens but as AF doesn't work on the D40, half my shots are blur because of out-of-focus MF!
