I appreciate those already known things for me.. But i cant see my face if i want to capture myself in my room qith all lights off, with no candles and no tv turned on.. I occasionally do with my BB that has flash.

Is it meant to be perminantely used for video record? If not and captures are optioned, then your point is missing something.

As long as capturing is optioned, flash is considered to be missing here pal.

1- you can add flash to those by buying it as a accessorie. Cannon flash item too, Cannon, so...

2- those are very rare cameras. Exception in the world of kamera.

Ok. Place the name and model of your flashless cameras.

Kodak Brownie 2

Nikon 2020 (if I recall correctly)

Flip video camera (only about a year old)

Many phone cameras including the Blackberry Curve 3, a current model, also have no flash.

You can "add" a separate handheld flashgun to any camera if you really want.

But we're going a bit far afield. The iPad 2 doesn't have a flash. We can argue endlessly over whether or not this was a good decision on Apple's part but that won't change anything. Submit your feedback and perhaps we'll see one in the iPad 3.

Do you realize that, if Apple adds a flash, he'll post endlessly about why there is a flash?

I can't think of any video cameras that come with a flash..... or need one.

My iPhone (first gen or second, not sure) takes pictures in lower light than my Nikon D2X because the sensor is more sensitive in low light.

The better cameras are built to take photos with insanely high ISO ratings, allowing you to take pictures with no flash, where you'd needed one earlier.

There is every chance that someone will write an app that will allow control of a wireless flash (like my Nikon SB600).

Finally, the iPad is not a camera.....

For the lack of cameras in blackberry curve, its missing because this mobile is meant to be the cheapest blackberry , so it wasnt a good thing the lack of flash.
