Thanks, pixeldoctor, and Justin....I appreciate the info. The rig itself has a quality Olympus camera in it, though I will readily admit I don't know enough about it to determine whether it's capable of low light or not....As I mentioned, I've been using ISO 400 film ( and yes, it is quite confusing, I know next to nothing about film) and when I reloaded the camera, I spent a little money and bought 3 rolls of ISO 400 again, but instead of the el cheapo film I got Kodak HD......I hope that helps.....

The pics I get in bright sun are absolutely beautiful, it is indeed the lowlight that they suck.....The one I posted is actually pretty good, I've got a couple with a bit more light actually, that are considerably worse....Photoshop can be a wonderful thing though.

Ok, so ISO speeds.......How is the flash effectiveness affected by the different speeds, and is ISO speed comparible to shutter speed?
