[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 185417, member: 1573"] Without seeing a sample photo or the exif data (f/stop, shutter speed, iso), the following are just educated guesses: 1. In auto, the camera is going to adjust the f-stop and shutter speed and iso to give you a "decent photo". 2. The fact that the pic is blurry usually means that the the shutter speed was too low to shoot handheld and/or stop any movement (if you didn't use flash.) 3. The graininess is usually high iso or lens/light/iso combo. To shoot in low light without flash and depending on the subject, you need a pretty fast lens (min. f/2.8) and a tripod. If you're not sure or don't know about f-stop, etc., try this link for an abbreviated intro to the [URL="http://www.lightstalking.com/exposure-triangle"]"exposure triangle"[/URL] or a more detailed one [URL="http://photo.tutsplus.com/tutorials/photography-fundamentals/the-ultimate-beginners-introduction-to-exposure/"]here[/URL].
