Thanks.  If I had been holding the camera level it might have helped.  :-)

I have been very resistant up to now about the idea of a camera with
no viewfinder that you have to hold out in front of you to see what it
sees.  I may still be but I haven't decided yet.  Here I was trying to
grab shots before people walked into the frame.  I am not sure this
camera is a grab shot shooter.

But it sure is small and the raw images are otherwise mostly pretty
decent, even at ISO 800.
