Where is the flash for the camera on ipad pro

Michael,

The large iPad Pro DOES have an LED Flash!!!!

No, the 12" iPad Pro does not have any kind of flash. Led nor true tone. I know, I have one and it has no flash.

Only the 9.7" iPad Pro has a Flash which is a True Tone Flash for the rear one, and a retina flash for the front facing one.

Really? I am using my 12.9" iPad Pro to type this and mine does NOT have an LED flash as at all, anywhere. It has a microphone hole next to the rear camera lens, not a flash. And no flash is mentioned in the 12.9" iPad Pro specs nor have I seen any report of any upgrade or changes to the large screen iPad Pro since I bought mine as a pre-order once they were announced.

For the 12" iPad there hasn't been any changes since its release in November of 2015.

The 9.7" was released in March of 2016 with the "enhancements".

I don't expect any further updates until next year again in March when I would assume both the 9.7" and the 12" will get a update. Probably a new A10X chip and a 3D touch screen I would be willing to wager.

What is the round dot to the right next to the camera lens on the large iPad Pro?

My iPad 3 doesn't have it?

And there is a cutout for this dot in the large iPad Pro silicone back case?

I have been assuming that was the LED flash?

I believe that is one of the dual microphones. Earlier iPads only had one. Newer ones have 2.

OOOhhh!!!!

THAT is a MIC!!!

I had NO idea!!!!

I thought all of this time that was the LED flash!!!!

That's an audio microphone!

Did not know this, at all.

I had always assumed thar dot was a flash unit!

So, still no camera flash (except the smaller iPad Pro, now) on the majority of iPads!

I thought for the entire year I had this iPad that the dot next to the camera lens was a led flashing light.

Kinda bummed out about this newly discovered fact, now.

Most of my videos and images I have shot with my iPad Pro still came out pretty well using that 8 mp camera, though.

I attributed the improvements in video and image quality to not only a better camera lens, but to an iPad having a fictitious LED flash?!

So, the dot is a second microphone and not a flash unit!

Well, I guess better late than never for finding this out...

😮😐😕😠

My iPad Pro does not have a flash and it less than a year old

You purchased the 9.7 iPad? I'm referring to the 12.9 iPad Pro
