I'm going to be attending a Baptism and will be taking photos inside church. I'm using a Nikon D60. Whats the best settings to use? I appreciate the help.

Set on Auto, and sync. flash at 1/200, this will stop any movement from blurring. flash -1.5 so as not to blow any close ups.

My 2cents worth.

If it is possible, I would suggest visiting the church with a "model" (I usually take a girlfriend along when doing this) prior to (days ahead if that is possible) and doing some test shooting. That would serve to give you more familiarity with the location, the lighting and the settings on your camera.

Or, find a similar location/lighting and play with your camera until you are familiar with the settings that will work best for you.

Thanks - I will take a ride there tomorrow and do as you suggested. I love the idea being able to test shoot and not worry about missing anything.
