Low light action shot while not using my flash? Help, can it be done.
My camera -- I have a Nikon D70 digital SLR. Using the Nikon 70-300mm lens.
My problem -- At a recent gymnastics competition (my daughter) the lighting was not very good and out of consideration of the gymnasts flash photography could not be used. So do to my limited knowledge of setting my own shutter speed or aperture I was limited to just putting my camera on the pre set setting such as action or night. Almost all of my shoot came out blurred. Can anybody here offer suggestions to make my next situation like this more successful?
Thanks in advance
