Taking a good picture, or getting a good shot depends on a lot of stuff.

I acquired a new digital camera, a Canon PowerShot A620

Cannon A620 is a really good camera. I think you just have to play around with its features a bit, and soon you'll figure out how does it work well in different conditions. I would recommend NOT to set every setting to automatic; yes.......even sometimes cameras can't identify the difference between sunlight and tubelight
.
As a lot of members have already emphasized on the ISO; its a really cool feature to play around with. Correct me if I'm wrong, but i think Canon A620 goes up to ISO400. That's really good for the price and prize you're paying for this camera. Its just the matter of being at the right spot at the right time and having the perfect lighting/flash to go with it.
But just in case you or anyone wants to take pictures like
this and
this; you want to focus on what kind of lens you are using. A lot of camera has spherical lenses, but if you have aspherical lens that will help you focus on one object really well.
Here's a sample diagram of how it works. That would mean that one can capture individual robots in action really well. Another wonderful way is Single-lens Reflex or commonly known as SLR; its uses a movable mirror or a prism that does its magic between the camera and the lens (

I used to have a Fuji, but now a days I'm working with a
Nikon D80 w/ 70-300mm Aspherical lens f/4-5.6. Although its a bit expensive, but if you are a part time photographer, loves nature and adventure, or have any kind of craze for photography, it worth every single penny
