Ah, the digital age!

Vianna,
I know just how you feel. I have a Sony Cybershot and unless I'm in bright light or daylight, it takes up to one second from the time I press the shutter release to the time the darn thing actually snaps the photo! It drives me crazy!
Is there any way you can bump up the lighting situation?

On my camera I have a continuous shot option (where the camera just keeps taking one pic after another up to a certain amount of pics). I've not used this and I don't know if that would solve the delay problem or not.

I have just learned to shoot children in relatively bright light!

Many is the time I wish I had a decent SLR!!! (Or a digital SLR! I'm pretty sure you can manually adjust the shutter speed on those.)
