Hi Ian, It looks like you have camera motion, not focus problems. Set the G10 to maximum zoom, image stabilization OFF, AF Frame = AiAF, exposure mode=Manual. Press the Menu button, go to the camera symbol and choose Save Settings. Press the FUNC/SET button and select either C1 or C2. Now when you select C1 or C2 on the exposure mode dial, the camera will go to maximum zoom and do all the other things you've set. This will be your GigaPan setting. In particular, it appears that image stabilization actually causes blur as the camera takes a bit of time to stabilize after it's moved to a new location. See the comments on my image gigapan.org/gigapans/24538/ for more on this. In GigaPan Options/Delay Time use about 1.8 seconds' delay for sunlit exposures and around 3 seconds for cloudy conditions. There's a setting for continuous press of the shutter release pusher and you should use that. Try that and see if your pictures don't improve. Send me a message if you need more help. Tom
