That means when it's all the way out, the lens body is longer than it is when it's all the way in. So this tells me you want to take a picture of something that's far away from you. OK, now...that little built in flash is good for about 10 feet at most. Pretty useless using that flash with a zoom lens, yes? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> You want an external flash mounted in the hot shoe for anything over 10-12 ft. I would recommend the SB700 Nikon flash. It can even be used off camera. Hope this helps explain the shadow in your pictures.</p></blockquote><p></p>
