Why do all my indoor photos come out blurry?

Just because the camera is digital it doesn't mean that the laws of physics don't apply! If the shutter speed you're using is slower than 1/30 or 1/60 of a second, odds are that the shot will be blurry!

This is a very common question and nine out of ten times it's the same scenario: people taking shots indoors without the flash. Just because the camera is digital it doesn't mean that the laws of physics don't apply! If the shutter speed you're using is slower than 1/30 or 1/60 of a second, odds are that the shot will be blurry! A lot of people migrating from film cameras say "well my photos were always sharp with my film camera in these situations", and a likely explanation for that is the use of ISO 400 film.
So what's the solution? Here are a few suggestions:
1. Use the flash
2. Add more light to the room, if possible
3. Use a tripod
4. Turn up the ISO sensitivity a notch or two. Note that doing this will increase the amount of noise in your image
5. If you haven't bought a camera yet, consider one with image stabailization (this is still a rare feature, though)

This actually helps improve clarity a lot.
1) Always use Program mode (symbol P).
2) In Program mode set the "metering mode" to spot.

Now, enjoy clear pictures.
