Hi Vianna, i can appreciate the painful sessions you must go through with your camera. My camera, the Fuji FinePix S5500 comes with continuous shots functions but i have problems with delays too. In fact, even for the best digital SLRs in the markets still experience some forms of delays.
After checking out your cam model on dpreview.com, i reckon you can do two things for yourself :
(1) change the memory card
(2) Set your cam to high speeds

Your model can do multiple shots too (see ? on continuous drive on the website). I met a professional photographer and he swears that different memory cards have different "transfer speeds" - the speed of transferring the photo-shot onto the memory card. He said to look out for cards with 80X or higher transfer speeds...of course, that comes with higher prices.
Next, your cam does a whopping max speed of 1/1500 sec shots. So that's another enhancement that you can use for those lightning quick shots you sought to take.
Hope all this helps your work from now on!
