Excuse the interjection Bill, but how is the camera for shutter speed,
or whatever it's called in digital cameras.  My old camera (HP
PhotoSmart C30) just wasn't any good at anything but landscape and
portrait shots.  I do have about a dozen good shots of some of my son's
basketball games, but the rest look like blurs and streaks of color more
than photographs.
