Thanks both of you, that's all helpful.

The main difficulty with a compact with zoom (it's a five year old Panasonic Lumix TZ5) is that you don't really have control of f stops due to the zoom, nor is there an "aperture priority" or "shutter priority" option. All I can change is the ISO (which I generally have set as low as possible given the light available, say 200 max), shutter speed (which I have trouble getting to grips with) and exposure (which I must admit I tend to leave on auto). I don't really have enough knowledge of shutter speeds to know what I should be setting to in dappled light, and without a tripod slower shutter speeds are obviously going to lead to less sharp images anyway.
