I should have clarified that last post -- the blurring problem is only with fast action and night time. Daytime and/or still pictures turn out great. It is quite a camera. I even bought a couple of books to teach me the setting to use, but I must have a mental block -- it did not sink in. I need a cheat sheet to tell mewhat setting to use in what sort of situation. But then, I guess that's what the AUTO function is for.
