[QUOTE="plykins, post: 937624, member: 29752"] Ok Lou, here we go: 1 Depth of field is dependant on exposure time. The larger aperture produces a smaller depth of field because the exposure time is less.As far as the the shutter speed at a given aperture, the slower speed will produce a larger depth of field, but the picture will be under exposed. When one is changed, the other must also change to get the right exposure. 2 Lenses are rated on several things: glass quality, smoothness and speed of focus, and aperture size. I have both Sigma and Vivitar. Picture quality is about the same(a professional photographer could tell the difference). 3 Shooting action pictures like MX you will need a faster shutter speed,although the faster the shutter speed the smaller the depth of field. I would use the auto exposure feature and adjust the apeture keeping the exposure time at 1/60 or faster. Keeping the exposure arround 1/60 will give you the largest depth of field possible. 4 Aperture was too large, making the exposure too fast. 5 No and no 6 They can keep stray light from entering the camera, especially when the sun is in front of you. 7 & 8 I would again suggest the auto exposure and adjusting the aperture to keep the speed 1/60 or faster. 9 ISO is going to have an effect on the pictures. In film photography(what all my experience is in) the larger the ISO number the faster your shutter speed will be, but the quality of the pics will be less. To take a good picture you need to have the shutter speed and aperture at the correct position. Changing one will affect the other. By changing these you affect the depth of field(slower shutter speed-larger depth of field). Once you learn to do this, then it is a matter of what you want to achieve in the photo. Hope this helps.
