Are her hands really that shaky, or are you inferring that from the pictorial results? A lot of people involuntarily jerk their hand and arm down slightly when pressing the shutter release. Sort of an involuntary movement releasing the tension of determining the moment to fire or some such. Sometimes the simple suggestion that the release is an action of the finger alone while the hand and arm stay still can help. With some P&Ss, disposables and other small cameras, they can be taught to hold them with thumb on the bottom and index finger on the top, so a balanced squeeze between thumb and finger releases the shutter.

OT: They are running a TV ad campaign in the US for the AE Blue Card which shows a view panning back through a whole series of very impressive vault doors that close as each is passed until the last one is the blue square on the card. Whole pitch is about how secure the chip is. Didn't you say a while ago that you couldn't put the highest level of security possible in because of memory limitations? Doesn't stop the hype.

My gf has VERY shaky hands, and so 1000f pictures she took are blurry..
I have even tried upping the shutter speed, but anything less then 1/500th is blurry.. (I had no idea one can shake that much!) Any suggestions on how to cure this?
