The gorilla was too ugly to have its picture taken, obviously.

Best thing to do is to take it to a store so they can repair it.

olympus cameras are shit. just like kodak cameras are. it will coast more to get it fixed than it would to get a new higher quality one.

Its an SLR with auto exposure. The camera was doing what its supposed to. There was probably little light available, so it was doing a longer exposure.
There is nothing wrong with the camera. There is something wrong with the user though.
If you dont know how to use an SLR, go buy yourself a fucking point and shoot! They are like $10!
