Subject: Advice needed for shooting moving objects in low light conditions
You did a very good job here with those settings I think flash wont help you may need a faster lens say a standard 50mm with f 1.4 or push up the ISO with then running the risk of some extra noise

This could be a tough situation to capture....my only thoughts are to still use the flash to freeze the dancer, but use a faster shutter speed to still give you the disco lights but it would have less effect on blurring the dancer. Perhaps a manual flash set to a lower power (ie 1/8 power will give shorter flash duration) and use 1/2 sec shutter speed. Let us know how you make out!

Well, you have a very good chance with my friends because they speak english 
When i receive more, i write you... Kiss
Yesss i have finally found the solution for my problem. When i put my Iso level up between 400-650 my shutter speed between 1/5 - 1/10 seconds and my aperture at f2.8 my subject is frozen perfectly and sharp and i will have the ambient lights!! I want to thank everybody who has tried to help me with this!!

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when
isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is
supposed to be fire and brimstone?

Last sunday i've shot pictures during a club party in amsterdam. I was satisfied with most of the shots. But i also encountered some problems. There was a stage were dancers were performing and wanted to make some action shots from them. This was my strategy: Setting my aperture at f 2.8 my shutterspeed between 1.3" - till 1.6" seconds using my flash. The thought behind this was to use the flash to freeze my subject while using the longer shutterspeed to let the light produced by the disco lamps flow into the picture. This strategy always works for me when taking pictures in clubs when people are standing still in front of me. See the samples i have provided. But when shooting the dancers this didn't work. In the sample if you look at the second row of pictures from above you see a shot i made that evening which came close to what i want. So after the long introduction my question: How can i photograph a moving dancer in a nightclub? I want the dancer who moves perfectly frozen but also want to capture the disco lights. I managed to do it once that evening. Tips are greatly welcome! I use a nikon d200 with a sigma 17-35mm lens. Hope somebody can help me cause my next shoot is coming up!!
