Was Fuzzy Wuzzy a bear or just Out of Focus.

I was at a group gathering and someone came up to me and asked why their photos were fuzzy. My initial reaction was similar to this guy in the Chevy commercial.

Well, uhhh. But in the middle of Well and uhh was a two hour class on photography.

The simple answer is your point-and-shoot camera jacks up your ISO, lowers your shutter speed, and opens your aperture in low light conditions. All three of those actions taken by your camera result in fuzzy images.

This not complex or hard but you will probably need to read you camera manual.

The first step is set you camera on Manual Mode. Set your Shutter Speed to 30th or 60th of a second. Then set your ISO to its lowest setting such as a 100 or 200 ISO. The Aperture should be set to about f4 or f5.6 so that you can capture ambient light. The final step needs your flash. Pop up your flash and stand about 10 feet from your subject. Take a shot. If the subject is two bright then take a few steps back and try again. If the subject is to dark then get a little closer. You need to find the distance that works best for you camera and its flash. Once you find that distance, then all have to do is shoot your subject at the distance to capture a properly exposed and not fuzzy images.
