The A80 has a good selection of shooting modes Av, Tv, M etc. "15 1/2000 sec. 1.3 sec. or slower shutter speeds are available in Shutter-priority (Tv) mode or Manual (M) mode. Slow shutter speeds of 1.3 sec. or slower operate with noise reduction." From Steves Digicams. I was not aware as Richard Pointed out that f8 equates to f22 on a larger lens (learn something everyday) Good link from Misha I would agree that shooting on an overcast day is a good way to get a slower shutter, I however prefer early/late in the day (my preference and depending on the mood you want to convey) 1. Because you can get some lovely warm colours in any foliage. 2. Because on overcast days there is little colour saturation. Its all a matter of opinion and would recommend that you try as many of the methods that you learn as possible.
