[QUOTE="JPar, post: 75238, member: 10663"] Sport mode = need for more light, I believe. It's a setting built for capturing things in motion, usually in brighter light. The automatic modes will behave strangely when they are in conditions they are not built for. Start playing around with more manual settings. Use a programmed setting like the "no flash" setting and then press up on the navigation pad to see the picture's histograms, ISO settings, speed, etc. Then set your camera up manually with those settings as guidance and tweak as needed. That should solve a majority of the focus problems you have. Learn the buttons on your camera and just start taking pictures of everything. Remember, you don't have to buy film anymore. :) [/QUOTE]
