Blurry vs. Flash
J_Saunders:
I did a little more research to try and help you out... The 530 seems to have 3 shutter modes. Switching between them is about the only way you can alter how the shutter functions... I would need the instruction manual to tell you exactly how to change these modes. the 540 model has 2 more modes, but they were deemed a little too complicated for a camera where they wanted to keep it as user friendly as possible. (As well as give another reason to pay $100 for the only slightly different model.)
That seems to be all I can get for you from google, but good luck! What is your comic anyway? I would not mind having a look at it.

I think a tripod is your best bet. A good one shouldn't be too expensive, will last you for the rest of your life, and will be useful if you ever film videos or are taking pictures of yourself. I have my dad's old one, so I didn't pay for it, but I think they're a really good investment.
Lunchbox:
Or if you're cheap like me, rest the camera on a stack of books, a spray can, the ironing board, a bookshelf. It still works!

Well, I introduced it in the "Plug yr comic" thread and tried to not overdue it, but SINCE YOU ASKED...

The tripod suggestions, while useful, accurate and helpful, are unfortunately a little unfeasible. The nature of the comic makes anything as organized as a tripod difficult - a lot of our shoots occur in places where they don't like photography (the next story arc takes place in an arcade, where they frown on taking photos of the machines), so some of the shots are taken on the sly.
I guess I'm just going to have to bend over the counter and let my local Shutter Bug store give it to me any way they want to. Don't really want to buy a new camera, but that's ART!

1/60th is recommended for tripodless-photography.
