Can this camea take fast moving objects

Hi Theo, yes and no...this question depends upon how fast is fast and how clear you need the fast moving subject to be. Is slightly out of tune ok, or do you need tack sharp. If tack sharp is your answer then it's no. If slightly out of tune is ok, then yes. I personally use this camera and give it a thumbs up for an all around camera. Fast action shots such as a sports game or stock car, it's ok, Try the auto and program modes, see which results you like best. Use the different settings this camera offers. Try panning the camera with the subject. Read some articles on this subject and some reviews on this camera, it may give you some insight as to, how to...hope this helps.

Video, ya. It's just a simple point and shoot though so I wouldn't buy it for taking pictures of fast moving stuff. Get one of the newer ones with the faster processor and intelligent IS in my opinion.

Hi Theo - There is limited aperture/shutter control, so it is more difficult to take photos of fast moving objects. I would say this camera is best for still images! However, I have taken great photos even when the objects are moving. Hope this helps.

Yes. But the flash has a speed control and can rotates in different colors! Its more eye catching.

No, it is a linear motion, from left to right and right to left. You can adjust motion time and speed.

yes it can. it has both yds and meters settings with just a push of a button. It works pretty well. dead on.

The camera can move with the hand held unit. You can move in all directions and zoom in as well.

I'm not sure because I don't use it for speed. I do know it works great for my basic purpose. Sorry I can't help you more.

This camera is fabulous at fast moving sports. It can take a shot a second, consecutively. I love it!

I'm not sure of the range, because I've only launched soft things, but it's really powerful with light weight items (they zoom across the room fast), so I would imagine it could be quite fast with heavier items.

Under normal circumstances I would say no, but I suppose hooking it via a belt would work. I doubt if it is made for that much speed. Wouldn't hurt to try i guess

No. It's response time is fast enough for action photos but not for high speed motion capture.

Yes you can take instant shots. Delayed timing and intervals are additional features actually

It give very fast speed. Reviews show that this model is the fastest you can get.

not really sure. I've not seen it "capture" anything either. Maybe it's super fast and I'm missing it?

Not very fast at all. It's not powerful by any means. If you want fast I'd look elsewhere.

Not very fast . My some said it was a peice of crap . It is really thin plastic and cheap!!! Don't buy it!

It is a darn good camera, but I do not know what your trying to do with it. Yes it can pick up plates at a bit of a distance. It is not going to get plates very far at night, or if the vehicle is moving. I hope that helps.

Unfortunately no, it's not capable of following a moving object. You essentially pre-program a start and end position. That being said, if you shot a presentation in wide angle at 4K you could later crop that footage down to 1080p and "follow" the person in post production. Similar to pan and scan on old VHS transfers of widescreen.
