Tanya, no filter will help you. you need to learn to check your histogram periodically whenever lighting changes a lot and the exposure is critical. use a test shot to check the highlights right away. shooting digital, you can afford to take extra shots of this nature. for tricky exposures, you really have to shoot RAW. it gives you a lot more room to work with than JPEG. specifically, a full stop of underexposure is trivial to handle. tv said that he carries 18 CF cards with him when he goes on a shoot (that is the number i remember when i asked him sometime in the last 6 months). as for the flash problem, i think yours was underpowered for the lighting conditions, but that is a guess.
