Overall I am very happy with my new SD100, and I find it very good. Although I'm new to digital cams, and photographs in general and I'm noticing on certain moving shots I'm getting a blurring effect. I know that this is part do to the shutter, and I have my camera in the AUTO mode, and it selects the shutter for me. Is there anyway I can pick a very high speed shutter? I believe this is causing the problem? Any help would be great..

Thank You

Heres a shot from my home theater, as you can see big time blurring.

Base on EXIF data in image, the shutter is speed is too slow, 1/8 second for blur1.jpg and 1 second for blur2.jpg, the blur is cause by the movement in the movie.

If you shot it handheld it also suffer from camera shake.

You can not adjust faster shutter speed in SD100 even in manual mode. I suggest that you use a tripot, pause the movie, and take the shot.
Hope this will help you. :wink:

There's simply not enough light to get a sufficient shutter speed. If you're shooting just pictures of your tv screen, pause the movie, use a tripod or a something sturdy and used a timed shot to take the picture.

Either that, or start using the flash.

just bought this sd100 too to help me in my anatomy classes, which already gave me an A on summerI and 2 more bio to go. Anyway I usually just take pics of body parts model with it . I have just recently discovered that it doesn't take good pictures of moving stuff like when inside a car. Is there a way to solve this or this is the tradeoff of being so small and not having enough manual controls?
I took some photography classes back in highschool and now I'm starting to like photography again but digitally this time. I've purchased this with a 2 yr warranty hopefully it'll breakdown before 2 yrs and by that time 6 MP would be a lot cheaper.
