Once again tried it, messing with the ISO (brought it down to 200) and still had the same issues. Someone help please, I don't get what I am doing wrong and this has me so frustrated.

Well, ferrettifr, an aperture (Av) of f/16 will require longer exposure to get enough light through such a small opening, and with inside lighting a tripod will certainly be needed for the longer exposure time. However, outside in bright sunlight should yield fast enough shutter speeds to easily hand-hold the camera. I took my Nikon D60 outside in bright sunlight at about 6:00 pm CDT with Av Priority set at f/16 and get a shutter speed of 1/250th second at ISO 800. If the same is done in the shade, it will, of course, require longer shutter speeds.
