other than boosting you ISO setting or getting more light, i don't think there's much you can do other than slowing down the shutter speed. this is assuming that the aperture is already wide open.

hm, well the problem would be a lack of light.. up your iso and choose a larger aperture (smaller number) or get a flash and some more light.

Shoot at a larger aperture, use a higher iso, put some more light on your subject (lamps, flashlights whatever), try it outside on a sunny day.

are you zoomed all the way out? f/5.0 is a pretty high minimum f-stop.
