Originally posted by rydalot I am hoping someone here can help. I got a Kx recently and I can't seem to get one moving shot that is not blurry. I find the manual very hard to follow and it doesn't seem to give me a direct answer. I even had a photographer friend try and they can't figure it out. Even a shot of my son will be clear, but if he moves his hand that will blur. I have even tried it on the 'action' setting with the running man symbol and it doesn't work either.
The "running man" sport mode is a good start. But it only works if you have set a sufficient ISO for the available light, alternatively auto ISO. Otherwise the camera will be forced to use a slow shutter speed. That's the reason for motion blur.
Suggested fix: Press the ISO button and set auto iso up to 3200.
Alternative fixes:
1. Try daytime outside where light is plenty.
2. Use the flash.
3. Stay in the wideangle range of the lens, it lets in more light that way.
Sincerely,
