I own a Nikon D5000 with the kit lens (18-55 mm) and the 18-200mm lens. I am new to this and cannot seem to get a clear and crisp photo. I typically only use S mode or A mode. No auto. I've read everything about being really still, using a tripod, etc. Is there anything I can do using either of these lens to correct this? I've played around with the shutter speed, but still no luck. I can't get blurry backgrounds with my 18-55 but they seem to be a little more clearer. The other lens will produce a blur, but my subjects are fuzzy! I attached a photo that I wish would have been a little better.
Also, If I am going to be taking pictures of families are these two lens okay? I was hoping to get a new lens, but can't spend a lot while I am learning. I've been reading a lot about the 35mm, 50mm, and 85 mm but have no clue what would work best for portraits. Any advice?
Thank you!!!
