[QUOTE="IanCT, post: 781033, member: 6074"] I noticed you said ISO was at 1600 at 10ft away. I would go no higher than 400 if you can help it - too much noise at that high of an ISO. Try using aperture priority set to around f/4 or f/3.5. Also, invest in a bounce flash with a diffuser. At 10 feet away and what looks to be high ceilings, I'd pull out the diffuser panel used for 14mm focal length on my SB-600 and set it for balance (or fill) flash and it turns out pretty good. Then you can use a faster shutter and reduce blur. Here's an example where I used the above settings on a boat with low ceilings. Couldn't aim it straight up or at an angle, so pointed forward with the diffuser seemed to work out best.
