Luck?
Seriously, Nikon 20.2 megapixel camera. Yeah, I've noticed outside shots are a non issue. Would explain the light idea, but inside there is a lot of light, but it does not like two objects or more it seems...
I have noticed this: when I put the subject on the bed and take a pic, it comes out good, like the nonblurry pic of hands. Light source is right over bed. When I try to shoot about a foot away on the cabinet, its blurry shot after blurry shot...
Put that Nikon in macro mode for those up close shots, Matt. If it's a point and shoot, I don't know what model you have, there's an icon that looks like a little flower in the settings. That's what you want for those foot away shots.
