So got my first "good" camera outside of point and shoots. I'm trying to be a big boy and not shoot in auto mode. So the internet says to use Aperture mode for shooting. So on my first outing with the camera I put the camera in A mode and messed around. I do have some questions though, When you open up the aperture you getting a shallower DoF, I understand this, on my kinda crappy kit leans I shot some a F3.5 (the most open I can get with this lens) and do like the effect for some shots but a lot of the stuff i'm gonna want to take pics of is landscapes stuff like pic related. At what point does the DoF open up so you get "everything in focus"? I used F5 a lot since it looked good on the camera screen.
I also have some shutter speed questions, I saw some humming birds and wanted to "freeze them" in time so to speak, what kind of shutter speed am I gonna need to do that? In general what speed of shutter should I be using for hand held shots? How slow can it get before it gets blurry?
