[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 377213, member: 13090"] You are not understanding what the User Guide is telling you. It is NOT saying the flash will always deploy in Manual Mode. It's saying, *IF* you choose to deploy the flash in Manual, the [I]flash options[/I] are always available. Seriously, think about this... The flash ALWAYS deploying in Manual mode? That simply doesn't make sense. You should have the option to use any of the various flash-modes (Fill, Red Eye Reduction, Rear Curtain, etc.) but the flash should not be popping up unless and until you specifically hit the flash button. Period. That's the difference here: the flash should be AVAILABLE; not AUTOMATICALLY popping up for every shot. In full Auto, the flash decides when and how it deploys. In some "Scene" modes, the flash will decide automatically when and how to fire. But outside of those settings, in P, S, A & M modes the flash is optional and should not deploy unless you press the flash button. Once again... Your camera, based on your description, is *NOT* operating correctly. [COLOR=#ffffff]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
