| Re: nikon d80 shutter speed I realise your posting was a while ago and I hope you have got to grips with the D80.
If I can throw in an alternative, follow these steps and you won't over-expose.
1] set to 'P' - programme
2] lightly dab the shutter release
3] rotate the wheel on the rear of the camera near the right hand strap loop, in a counter-clockwise direction, ie. put your thumb on the left side of the wheel and move it to the right.
Looking through the viewfinder indicates the increase in shutter speed until the maximum is reached for the given aperture.
