Of course every camera handles different combination of settings in different ways, and finding that magic combination to achieve the look that you are after can take time with a new camera. I believe that you are just about there :-) Now for more dof in your macro shots, keep the ISO200 and reduce the aperture, and if you can do a minus 1/3rd on your exposure compensation to bump up the speed even more, but of course the flash will probably have to be used particularly for indoor/low natural light shots - thats when your extra sharpness really shows :-)
Funnily enough, I picked an ISO 50 shot for my PaD -- side-by-side with the others (and I took loads more than seven, of course...!), it just 'felt' better: even though it wasn't as good, technically.
If I'd been looking at capturing something more complex, I think ISO 200 would have done the job perfectly!

Well, clicking on each one certainly showed the difference ;) My humble opinion is that ISO 200 works extremely well - do you agree? The higher speed gives the 'sword' just that bit more edge dont you think lol.
