I'm glad it worked better for you. Just don't over do it with the unsharp mask or it will blow out the pic. Just something new to try.

Since the cam has no screw mount, it's gonna be tough. I've read of using stuff like small sand bags or those stress ball things as a make shift tripodesque thing in order to keep the cam steady. Also using a fixed object like a wall or pole to lean against may also help on those shots that you slow it down enough to need it.
