What settings would u use for a digital camera and flash unit for an indoor party at night?

i want to take some photos at a party at night in a hall, what would u set your iso, speed and f stop at, and would u use full flash or stop it down a bit, i dont want washed out faces?


many thanksWhat settings would u use for a digital camera and flash unit for an indoor party at night?
In that situation I would just put it in the ';Green Square'; mode and go for it. A good camera with TTL metering and a compatibly made OEM flash unit will generally not blow-out the faces in that mode.





If it does seem to wash out faces then put it in the ';P'; mode and dial down the flash a bit. With digital, a little bit of underexposure is far better than overexposure. Use the lowest ISO for best color and low noise.





As you become drunker and drunker the ';Green Square'; mode will become even more important.What settings would u use for a digital camera and flash unit for an indoor party at night?
100 asa, F8, and bounce the flash...either off the walls/celings or from a brolly... (silver or white)





and take a few test shots of your mates, just to check its all ok before everyone arrives!
If it has an auto sine put it on that and this will do it for you simple
