Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I'd say 400!.
But - be aware !.!.!. the color temperature of the two different light sources (the fluorescent bulb and your built-in flash) are not going to be the same!.
If you're shooting B&W it won't matter!.
In any case, you're dealing with a very low amount of usable light!.

400 is for low light situations, 100 is for well lit!.!.!. when in doubt, choose 200 and compensate with the correct aperture and shutter speed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
