I'd try turning the dial to the little guy running (Sports mode) and go from there. You can also try Shutter Priority and set the shutter speed. For fast stuff - like getting bucked off a bronco - try a shutter speed of at least 1/300 or more. It depends on the light how fast you can go. Also check your Image Stabilization. I like it at "2" unless I'm panning and then I like "3" Hope this helps! Tim

I think that will help. I've never really used the "premade" dial settings so this is all a learning curve to me. Maybe I'll have the kids run real fast to see if I can get them. LOL
Thanks!

I don't have a G1 (wish I did!) but I do have the same blur problem with fast movings pics. I thought maybe my camera was just too slow, but if you're getting blurry with the G1 that can be fixed by settings, maybe I still have hope. Although I think I've used the sports mode befor and it didn't make much of a diff.

The problem with action shots indoor is there isn't enough light so the camera has to go to a slow shutter speed and you get the blurry shot. Going to "Forced Flash" (remember to turn of burst shooting) will help. The reason I suggest Forced Flash is that if it's in auto flash, the camera may think there is enough light and it doesn't need flash. That happens to me a lot and I end up with blurry shots!
