I just got a FZ8 for Xmas and i've been tinkering around alot with it. While im not partial to flash in general, I definitely like the results from setting the flash to slow sync (press the right dpad key when the flash is popped). Also keep in mind that by pressing the top dpad key, you can adjust not just the exposure settings, but flash compensation (how bright the flash is).
With the flash off, i like to stick to spot metering, but if you're having problems with overall exposure, try switching the metering to multiple,which looks like (o) .
