    Speedlight: how to get fast shutter speed in doors?

    When using an external speedlight indoors how do you get a fast enough shutter speed in order not to have blur? I often use Av mode for other shooting, but using this gives a very slow shutter speed indoors.

    Would using Manual mode allow me to use a faster shutter speed indoors? Would the flash unit just give more power to compensate for the faster shutter speed? Are there any disadvantages to using a faster shutter speed with flash? I take it that by using a faster shutter speed indoors that whilst the flash is going to give more power, the background of the scene will be darker because of the faster shutter speed?

    *title should read "indoors", I'm not shooting inside of doors! lol
