[QUOTE="MoreCowbell, post: 716738, member: 47352"] With my Nikon D3400, I’d like to disable the flash while choosing any of the modes on the Mode dial. The only things I have discovered that are possible are: [LIST=1] [*]On the Mode dial, the flash can be permanently disabled by selecting the Flash Mode. But this is only for [B]this[/B] mode – it doesn’t apply to any others. [*]If I select (for example) Portrait mode, I can press the ‘[B]i[/B]’ button and within that menu turn off the flash. But this setting only holds for [B]that[/B] photograph at [B]that[/B] time. If I then turn off the camera and then turn it back on, the setting is lost (i.e., the flash mode reverts to Auto). [/LIST] Ugggh !! I guess I’m, asking for too much. I’m frankly surprised that this camera apparently has no capability to, at the operator’s discretion, disable the flash for [U]any mode[/U]. And unfortunately, I have seen nothing in the User’s Manual (136pp) that addresses this, and have found nothing online. [/QUOTE]
