Default Minolta Dimag A200

Thank you "Whiskers". I was so used to regular shooting, I guess there is a
big trade off with this photography.

get the shutter to release quick enough to capture the action.

Any help on setting this, if possible, would really be appreciated.

Thank you,

'Shutter lag' is a universal 'feature' of compact digital cameras.
Anticipation is the only thing that works: get to know how long it takes
between you squeezing the button and the picture being taken, so that when
you expect something to happen you can squeeze the button that much in
advance. Much easier said than done.
