That is what I have found with my film SLR; however, with this camera...in total auto-settings, I still am getting very blurry pics, even if I am perfectly still...?!?!? Go figure! I haven't made it to the camera store yet, but hopefully this week! Hope you have fun in your class!

PS...the photos you posted of your furries look GREAT! Super-crisp and beautiful

Great pictures! I'm in the same boat with my camera so I signed up to take a photography class in mid February. I got a Canon 10D and I find that if I don't rely on Auto Focus and shoot in a mode other than automatic, I have more control over the blurs. I still have a lot of learning to do too so I'm excited about the class!

Good Luck figuring it all out.
