D100 Dropping below 1/60th in Program Mode

I have a D1OO that I use to shoot weddings with. I usually use it in

shutter or manuel mode. I have found that when I use it in Program

mode it will drop the shutter speed below 1/6oth without giving me any

warning. Hard to trust it if I don't want blurry pictures. Is there

anyway set the camera so it won't drop below 1/60th of a second in

Program?

It's doing that because it is trying to give you a correct exposure and in Program mode, it is doing exactly what it is supposed to. There is not enough light. Increase the ISO, use a faster lens, or use a flash. For event photography, I find it most consistent (read no surprises) to use manual mode and the integrated meter as a guide.

try useing the shutter mode set the shutter speed where you would like it and it will not drop below that iunless it is too dark the the shutter speed will drop

Thanks. I don't use program to shoot almost anything but my friend uses her program mode a lot and hers will not drop below 1/60. I think it just won't take the pictures unless the flash is up. I guess mine is a little more hands on then hers is.

Buy a P&S that has auto ISO and does all the thinking for you.

 

Are you getting paid to shoot weddings? I hope not.
