Jitter is avoided when taking pictures
indoors of a moving subject by increasing
the ISO sensitivity and making the shutter
speed faster. (However, picture noise will
increase.)

indoors of a subject with no movement by
decreasing the ISO sensitivity.
Depending on the brightness and how
fast the subject is moving, jitter may not
be avoided.
