To anyone who can offer me advice on the subject, I could use it desperately.

To give some background info., I shoot indoors, use the s2 pro, a Nikon 28-120 AF lens and usually shoot at ISO 200 in P mode. I have a Nikon sb800 flash, but have found that the shots look better with the settings I'm using without the flash (as with the flash everything is black when trying for distance). The problem I'm having is blur when people are moving. Still shots are beautiful, but any movement (e.g. walking) results in a blurred shot.

My questions are: What are typical settings for capturing movement in low light situations without blur? And, with the equipment I have, what would you suggest to accomplish capturing favorable results.

Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!!

With my Canon 20D when in an existing light environment, I increase the ISO to 1600 and shoot in Program with auto white balance. The whirling dancer in this set is a good example.
