can anyone help me decide which SLR settings to use at the softball game tomorrow? the game starts at noon so there will be a lot of sunlight.

if your camera has a preset that favors shutter speed, choose that and keep your shutter speed above 500 if it's bright enough; when you're shooting sports, you want the fastest shutter speed you can get for the light. most modern dSLRs have a "shutter priority" preset (not sure what it would be called on your camera, but it should be in the manual).

good luck, and have fun! Smile

Thank you Kevin. I think that would be ATV mode for my camera.
