Hi, I'm flummoxed and am looking for an answer. I've recently been attempting to shoot some studio self portraits and am using an A3000 with either the 18-55 or 55-300 lenses. I've got it tied to a single 400ws monolite studio strobe and have tried connecting with both a wired and wireless trip system. I'm producing enough light to have my settings at 1/80 and f22 in the Manual mode. In all cases I've got the camera on a tripod and using the 10 second self timer to shoot the images. My image settings are Fine/RAW and I've tried every AF mode setting available. All of my pictures are coming out extremely soft, no matter what I try. I even tried to shoot something else holding the camera and not using the timer; they were soft too. The only sharp photos I can get is with the onboard flash - which is not giving me the look I desire - or no flash; both in one of the Auto modes (haven't tried this in Manual mode). Can anyone give me any insight as to what I'm doing wrong or if there's an inherent problem using off camera flash with the A3000? Honestly, I can't remember the last time I used it with flash and if so, whether the results were as desired. Thank you. Marc

Is it possible to use studio strobe setups with this camera? Is there a sync cable available. Can I use a radio trigger with this camera?
