[QUOTE="bluenoser, post: 29490, member: 6351"] Hi there. I suspect what is happening is that your shutter speeds are too slow and therefore the blurriness you are seeing is from your hand movement. However cameras do struggle with auto-focus a bit more in low light as well. Perhaps you are too close to your subjects and you are not beyond the minimum focusing distance for the lens you are using. Lots of possibilities. It would be helpful if you posted a picture or 2 (preferably with the EXIF) to allow the folks here to assist you better. PS. I see this is your first post - welcome to the forum! :) [/QUOTE]
