[QUOTE="SteveH, post: 501562, member: 9252"] Welcome to the forum Billie! Are you using the flash in TTL mode? Also what metering mode are you using on the camera? From what you describe, it sounds like the camera and flash are trying to expose the whole room, not just the subject - You could set the flash manually to a lower power, but in a nightclub taking lots of shots that could be a slow and hit-&-miss process - Have you tried setting the camera to -1 exposure compensation, and then set the flash to +1 compensation? that should cause the background to be slightly underexposed with the flash lighting the subject better... Try that and adjust the compensation amounts to suit. [/QUOTE]
