Post subject: Sony H1 flash too bright?
Archived from groups: rec>photo>digital (more info?)

I frequently find that when using my H1 indoors, portraits
and such, the flash is much too bright and washes out the
person's face. Is there a setting I'm not aware of that can
adjust this? Or any way to avoid it?
TIA

Not in the automatic mode. You can change the flash level to
+, normal, and - on the P setting. >> Stay informed about: Sony H1 flash too bright? |

Look how you are holding the camera, are you covering the flash sensor?
