i very less go over ISO 800...
about the fill in flash... my way is meter background and lock it with AE button... then shoot one shot as testing to adjust the flash compensation... something like yours....
about low shutter speed.. try use 2nd curtain... for me if it requires me using very slow shutter i will just ignore the background
about the last question.. if you using internal flash.. no way you can avoid the harshness .... (forgot that you can use diffuser it will definately help to reduce the harshness)
unless you use external flash gun... you can always tilt the angle of your flash...
Lol... i will definitely do the same thing.. just ignore the bg.
Hey have u heard of any diffuser for pop up flash? LOL....
p/s: Maybe u are thinking.. pop up flash already not bright enough, still want to diffuse it, sotz...

er...ok i noob noob but i try answer PART of your question...hehe...if you wanna compensate for the exposure try smaller f number...i think about f10-13 should be alright for motorbike pic... if still cant then try jack up to iso400 coz you said 800 will be very grainy... your last question ar... either get an external flash then use a diffuser or bounce of the flash from the ceiling...hope it helps...
Orenzai.. thanks for taking time to answer my questions.. but i think u din read the question carefully or maybe i din state carefully... what i mean is even if im using f1.8 and iso 400. metering the bg still requires me a, let's say, 1/8 shutter speed which will be very slow and often gets me a blur pic, are there any other ways to avoid this.. it's not that i want slow shutter speed, it's that i want to avoid it... above 1/20 and yet capturing the bg will be the best solution. I guess the only option is getting a speedlite 430. LoL...
About the external flash, diffuser and bounce trick(which is hard). Yeah.. it will definitely help. but... u can only learn those tricks by getting one of those or borrow one from somebody.. haha... but too bad.. i wont be needing it until i master my basics.. LOL... plus... i really have to get a vertical/battery grip before getting one of the external, or else.. flash 5 times.. habis wayang.. LOL...jkjk.
