Got the FZ8, need a bit of help

Some of there are in 12x macro as well, which of course hinders the results as well making motion even more evident. Took one today in that mode and got

Yeah I figured a tripod would do wonders, sadly I have to wait until X-mas being that my mom is like "I have to buy you some material item, I won't just give you money"
