The larger the room (theatre) the less effective it becomes so it might be wiser not to use it at all because a stofen eats light so without a stofen you've a more powerful flash or faster recycle times.
If you can do it it might be the best to set the camera on manual and the flash on P-TTL, you've a lot more control over your shots that way.
Shutterspeed hardly effects the lighting in your photo so the difference between 1/180 and 1/90 is minimal but it does control movement in the photo so you might want to experiment with that.
Aperture and ISO are your controls to change the exposure together with the flash power. Because the flash would be on P-TTL you don't have to worry much about that but if you notice your flash is struggling you should change one of those settings to make it easier for the flash.
Also set the flash on trail curtain, that way the movement is captured better if you don't freeze all the movement.
Here it is explained link
Might be very interesting effect for those fight scene.
If the trails aren't visible enough bump up the ISO or lower the f-number and the length of the trails is controlled by the shutterspeed.
I hope this helps.

I think Ben is right - a photo of a woman with her bits tastefully covered and, as in his second photo, with maybe just a hint of nipple is far more sensuous than the full on sexuality you see everywhere today.
Fantasies are always better then real life and such images always tease the mind to think. It's the same with horrors, the best ones are always the ones you hardly see the killer, Alien for example was very good in that.

If you want a real test you can also do a macro shot

Where does this question come from, is it important if it's art or not?

I've an little request, if you don't mind.
Could you compare shots with shutter speeds around 1/125?
The K7 had quite some shutter blur there so hopefully they have put a new shutter in it so it doesn't do that anymore.

and also those who have taken the image.
Does that make sense?

sorry, a shoulder bag.
Ian
ps, whats a rugsack
I think the master/new delhi 510 would just be large enough.
This the inside of the Master Delhi 510
(I don't think Crumpler would mind sharing the photo for their promotion)

As you can see camera with the grip and you can attach a lens to the camera two lenses on the side and a flash and there is probably room to stick other flash in it as well.
If you aren't sure though the 620 might be a better choice, better to have more space then too little space.
This the New Delhi 620.

I've the older 620 and it fits all my stuff nicely
But it's quite a weight on your shoulders after a while.
I would advice you to look at rucksacks if you need to carry your gear longer then an hour.

Photography is photography... it's very simple to define

I only meant it wasn't something new Ben was telling.
It wasn't directly directed at you, sorry if it seemed that way.
About the music videos, didn't it all began earlier?
Robert Palmer, "Addicted To Love" (1985)
An argument for the ages: Is this Palmer's sexiest video, or does that honor belong to "Simply Irresistible"? After much debate, we settled on this one — a monument to '80s deadpan sexuality. The models, which appeared in three other Palmer videos, aren't even trying to look like they're playing the instruments. According to VH1's Pop-Up Video, a musician was hired to teach them basic guitar-fingering techniques, but gave up after an hour.
J. Geils Band, "Centerfold" (1980)
I wonder why this song became such a hit, it's from 1969 link
