You say "I can only go as low as 5.6" My assumption here would be that you have a nikkor zoom lens that is 4-5.6 f-stop. When you are full telephoto (zoomed in) your lens is 5.6 at it's fastest. If you went full wide, you would be able to go to a 4 f-stop. If you want to go to a lower f-stop, you'll need to buy a faster (and much more expensive) lens. Note that my 70-300mm 4-5.6 lens was $150. Yet if you buy a lens that is a consistent f-stop of 2.8 through a range of 70-200 it's $1900 and about 5 times heavier. @steven

It seems that even in Manual mode, if I choose 1000 as my shutter speed, I can only go as low as 5.6. Is there something that I am missing? Steven I having trouble stopping down with my Nikon D80.
