Hi! @sujoyp and @nac, you both are my tech gurus. I dont know if you remember, but it was your patient guidance that helped meget this wonderful camera, CANON SX130IS. Many thanks!!!

About the Butterfly pictures, I have reproduced them as captured. Had to venture very close to them. Needed a lot of patience and some stealthy tip-toeing. :)

I was actually trying to get a few captures like @toofan does.

@nac Just in time!!!

Friends, I need help on one aspect. If you look at the below photos you can see the hands are blurred. The hand movements are basic movements durig poojas, nothing too rapid. Still I get a blur of this extent. I tried shutter speed of 1/200, 1/400. There was no such blur then, but the photos were pretty dark. Apart from using flash I could not find any way to brighten the shots. Also photos of babies without flash is full of such motion blurs. Any suggestions....

Primarily I shoot such function photos in P mode, without flash.

Only way is to shoot at faster shutter speed to freeze/capture with no blur. For that you should have very good lighting else you have to use on camera flash there is no other way with our compacts. You can push ISO higher but that will result some noise. If you do, don't go beyond ISO 200.

@nac... As you said I experimented with everything, but expect for bright lighting there was not much alternative for blur free photos.

Any suggestions on "no blur" captures of babies/kids without using flash.......

For dslr there are few options like external flash, use high iso or use aperture like 1.8.
For your camera see which of these options you can use

@mastervk... My camera has ISO max of 1600. Apart from using flash or shooting in bright light there doesnt seem to be a way out.

@nac... That is exactly what I am sticking to.

@skr u have to have good shutter speed to remove blur....use the max possible settings like max usable ISO + max aperture u can use then check if the shutter speed is good... else u have to use a flash or make a small handheld cfl light to get faster shutter
drops r good...right on focus

If you upload to flickr without removing exif data these info should be available at flickr.So anybody posting here can provide flickr link where person who are interested can view exif data.

^^ that's a option for a lazy guy (assuming we have very less count of gals :-D) who wants to make us work by downloading pic from flickr and view the info :-D :mrgreen:

btw, it will take just 10 sec to put the info.
