Thanks tramsey. I am shooting mostly auto mode so the blurred background is just happenstance, I can't take any credit. I mentioned earlier I have been working at 1200mm off hand to develop some innate stability, but I am also very impressed with the built in image stabilizer. It is an amazing little camera for the money.
Definitely a great little camera!! I take 'most' of my pics in Program mode since that allows the quickest adjustments and seldom lets me down!
