Best vlog settings for filming with Canon EOS M3?

<p>Hi guys,<br>

I've been looking through out the internet for tips and tricks for vlogging and photo's. However, I wanted to ask a few questions. Appreciate any answers here <br>

I'm using a Canon EOS M3 with a 15-45 mm lens.<br>

So the other night I was in a night club, and of course it's quite a dark place with rays of green, purple, red and blue lights. I put it on the auto function and popped out the flash in hopes to get some nice photo's that way, but it was harder than I thought. My Samsung S6 Edge was taking photo's much easier than my camera was.<br>

Should I be setting things up manually in a darker place like that to achieve a nice clean, not overly bright image? Or a different function on the camera or? I did try a few things but just could not work it out.<br>

Also for filming vlogs and stuff, should I just keep it on the video camera function and run it with auto or try to set up everything before recording to ensure the best results?<br>

I was originally going to get the G7X but it is sold out completely everywhere in my country so I just got the EOS M3.<br>

Thanks for stopping by to read my thread. And thank you in advance for any help!<br>
