I've just stepped up to a Canon EOS D30, but I'm having some major difficulties shooting in arenas and other areas with less than adequate light. It doesn't matter if it's a sports event or a simple group photo, the results are all the same - I'm using the sports setting and my shutter speed drops to like 1/30 (at least). You can guess the results - ghost-like images if somebody moves a hair.
I thought I could remedy it by purchasing a Speedlite 550EX flash. No dice. Same results.
I've tried every conceivable setting - including all those suggeted in the users manual - and I've struck out at every setting. Could someone please point me down the path of enlightenment so I can actually get halfway decent results. All help is appreciated.
