[QUOTE="aroy, post: 503546, member: 16090"] . To get every thing in focus you need mode DOF. So shoot at F8 or F11. As suggested instead of focusing on the distant most object, focus some where in between the subject and 1/2 way point. The DOF will take care of the rest. . With Flash and tripod you need not bother about speed. The flash will fire at around 1/4000 of a second. If you set the metering mode to "Matrix" mode then flash acts as a fill flash, but if you use "Spot" metering then the flash will be in TTL 'non fill" mode, in short it will just stop action. . To calculate the range of the flash (in feet), just divide the guide number (in feet) by the F number. The on-board flash is not as powerful as an external one. If you have an external flash of sufficient power, then you can point it upwards to get more diffused light. [/QUOTE]
