I know you just covered this topic with me in the last message. I went back and read it and you were saying if kids and pets are moving quickly you can have what is called Camera Shake. It sounds like you may be implying that the flash is off. I know when the flash is off you have to keep the camera very still or use a tripod.
Question. How in the world can I use a tripod and try to follow a child around? In Pets and Kids mode I am trying to determine if it matters whether the Flash is on or off. If I want to follow my subject all over creation a tripod is going to hinder me, so it looks like my flash would need to be on and if I'm outdoors I understand I don't need a flash unless I'm trying to capture movement in the dark. Am I making any sense?
By the way, I have the Canon Powershot A550 camera
