There are very few digital cameras you can handhold indoors without flash and not get motion blur. And the flash is good for only about 10 feet. Autoflash will usually operate before you get to a speed where you induce blur if you have it switched on and are within flash range. If you are getting blurring outside in good light or with flash check your settings that you don’t have it set on manual focus. If it is on autofocus and blurring outside in good light it needs to be returned for service.
Even outdoors try to use manual flash for people photos, keeping in mind you have to stand within about 12 feet to use it as a fill in flash.
I can’t find data on the S5R but the S5 and generally all Kyocera’s seem to have more than average shutter lag. They have some amazing burst rates, but if you just press the shutter it doesn’t take the picture until over a second later. If you pro-focus by holding the shutter halfway it has less then 1/5 second delay which is more likely to get the picture you want. If you take pictures of people in motion toward or away from the camera you have a hard time getting a focused shot without a continuous focus mode using either method.
