I used to just leave my kit lens on auto and blame the camera for blur, but after a guy at the camera shop on Metcalf told me to bump my shutter to 1/250 and raise my ISO instead of opening the aperture all the way, my keeper rate went from 10 percent to nearly 70, so what is your go to shutter speed for kids running around indoors?
