Hi Michal: I got your reply to my suggestion. Thank you. Now, your camera shutter speed with flash may be 1/60 sec, as you said, but, remember, the flash firing duration will be much much faster ( say 1/1000 sec, for example). This will FREEZE the motion ( your hand movement etc.) and with a narrower aperture of f8 or f/11, the image will be sharper. Got it? Experiment. Best wishes. JARIS

Hi Michal: A great subject for a photo. But, I wonder why everything is not in sharp focus, including the important label.. I would definitely use Flash in this situation and give, not f/3.5 but f/8-11 to increase depth of field. Flash would allow a faster shutter speed and lower ISO to 100-200 to yield a sharper and higher quality photo. A 1/40 Sec shutter speed, handheld, to me is unthinkable. Best wishes. JARIS
