This way she thinks I'm weak and incompetent and leaves me alone! More or less. ;-) I was just pointing out that the pop up flash on the Canon has a very strong spring, on the order of a Jack-in-the-box, in comparison to other so equipped cameras I have tried.

By the way, the built-in flash pops up only when the camera is set to shoot in one of photodope modes or if one presses the "pop-me-up" button. -Chris Lawson grduprey@rockwellcollins.com writes: Eric The Nikon had the bundled zoom lens/body package, a f3.5 I believe, and the Canon had a similar lens. Both were much dimer than the 28-70 f 3.5 Leica zoom on my R4SP. One of most annoying things about the Canon was the force which the pop up flash deployed, it almost jumped out of my hand it was so great. This also seemed to be an automatic thing in the store lighting, I could not figure out how to defeat this function, although I would guess this can be defeated by some special function being turned on. Where as the Nikon pop up flash deployed with much less force, and only when I released the latch. Gene _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
