Need some direction please. When shooting in M, A, S modes, using the auto focus, I can't seem to get any of my shots sharply focused. If I use an auto setting, the shots are nice and sharp. I thought it might be the Tamron lens I was using (no VR)' so I switched it up and today i used my Nikon 55-200 that came with my D60. But I got similar results. Auto mode produced sharply focused pics. I immediately switched to A priority mode (5.6) and same shot is fuzzy when I zoom in on the view screen. I'm new to using any of the manual settings and would appreciate any advice/input.
What am i doing wrong? Should I be using manual focus when in manual mode? I struggle with focusing manually because I cant wear my reading glasses when I'm moving around... I wasn't using a tripod so I stuck to fast shutter speeds.
TIA
