Although i did a whole series of shots which should have gotten a faster shutter speed. The lessen I've learned is: When I'M running a 60th with a 35mm lens does not cut it. (If it's them thats running who knows?) I tend to not be a wide open fast lensed shooter. I like to give myself some leeway. By the way i discovered the cure for a vertical alignment problem: Put your camera in a dark closet for a month and a half. Take it out! Voilą! a perfectly focusing body!
