<p>Hi I'n new to the forum but I need help. I just recently shot a wedding reception and I thought I had all the settings and I used my Nikon D5200 35mm 1.8g prime lens for low light. I shot roughly around a 2.8-5 aperture due to the amount of people in a group. Iso was high around 800 and 1200 which I know is bad with noise but I didn't have a flash because it overheated during the first hour so I used a light scoop since the ceiling was low. Back to my problem. On this photo I was focusing on the group of girls always trying to focus on the eye and thought the photo came out in focus but when I looked at it in light room I noticed the back was in focus and the front was out of focus. I know I focused on the girls but no mater how close of far I was I keep getting this issue. During the whole time the shots were not focusing right. I even tried the back button focus that is supposed to help. I tried lowering the noise and putting the photo in B&W and raising clarity and contrast but is this an acceptable photo to provide to the client? I really need to know what I can do so this doesn't happen again. Any ideas if this is a sensor issue and I might need to upgrade my body or would this be a user issue. I had over 1000 photos and came out with about 200 keepers. I want to prevent this from occurring again. I've tried different settings in manual and A mode but don't understand why the background in in complete focus and the foreground that I am focusing on is not and also a bit grainy.</p>
