Was out today to photograph the Danish Circus award.
Indoor use of flash, but did still get some moving shown.
Any suggestions to what is the source of the problem? Too weak flash? ?
Z8 20-70 f4 SB-800 1/60 sec f5.6 ISO 800

Yes I know, but I thought that the flash would freeze the motion.

What was the flash mode? It looks like you have it on 2nd shutter curtain, that gives opportunity for blurring/movement before the flash happens.

Or ... it was still so light that 1/60 allowed enough of a visible image to form beside the flash.

It was set to fill flash. I might be that the ambient light was the reasons, I did take some pictures without the flash without any problems, just higher ISO.

Ah, that's it then. Fill flash "helps" the ambient light, it doesn't overpower it. If you want sharp pictures in dark(er) situations, you'd have to have the flash as the 'master' light, not the ambient.

I use fill flash for example for indoor parties, where i use a higher ISO and a little pop of flash to bring more life to the picture, but the heavy lifting is then done by the ambient light.

Of course, YMMV

I like this look that you have gotten from the mobile.  The typical HDR/filled-in shadows look is gone.  Did you shoot it through Lightroom as a DNG  file?
