Your shutter setting was probably slow. Set your Maxxum on "S" for shutter prefered, or "M" for metered manual. Make sure your shutter is set at 250 or faster. Another option is using your flash to stop action. If you use the "P" (program) mode on your maxxum the exposure settings will be a toss up. If you're not sure how to use your Maxxum's exposure system, check your manual. If you don't have a manual you can download one from the Minolta USA web site.
