Finally got a decent shot of my dog indoors with a 400 ISO film after three rolls of blurry mess.
I was about to give up on indoor pet photos, but pushing the Tri-X to 800 and using a 50mm f/1.8 lens in my dim kitchen last Tuesday actually froze her mid-yawn perfectly.

My buddy's cat photo turned out sharp after he finally tried a faster lens indoors.

So what was he using before, a kit lens? I've seen so many people fight with a slow f/5.6 zoom in a dark living room and wonder why every shot is blurry. Switching to even a basic f/1.8 prime makes a crazy difference, letting in way more light. Did he say if the cat was actually sitting still for once, or was the faster shutter speed finally freezing the movement?

My old kit lens was useless indoors until I got a cheap 50mm f/1.8.
