How do I set my camera for children in action? Hi! I was wondering why my pictures come out blured when I try to capture a child in action? Am I not setting my camera right f.e. my focal point is on manual focus for I want to focus on the eyes. I tried setting it on automatic but didnt change the fact that its still blurry! how about my AF mode I set it on one shot! I hope you can help me for I can really use it! Thanx Rachel

There are two things that cause a blurred picture: having the lens be out-of-focus, or having the subject move when the shutter's open. Let's address both issues. 1. Focus: To address these issues, zoom out all the way, make sure the aperture isn't too small, set the autofocus by holding the camera shutter half-way while keeping it trained on the child, and then press it down the rest of the way. Also, if you know *exactly* how far away the kid will be and if your DOF is wide enough (if you're zoomed out and have a small aperture), you could also try a manual focus. 2. Shutter speed: More info on camera settings: Ariel
