The flash won't pop up in my Nikon Coolpix S9700

It's probably stuck, wedge a paper clip or small flat head screw driver in flash slot and wiggle it out gently. If this doesn't work send it back to Nikon, that part is under warranty.

In program mode if you turn the flash off it stays off! In auto normal mode if it is dark & you go to take a picture & the flash doesn't pop up, there is a malfunction!

Double check to make sure it's not on "no flash" (lightning bolt with circle and slash through it) which youcan change by pressing the circle with the ok in the middle. If that doesn't work, turn the camera off, take the battery out,and then put back in and turn on. also make sure your camera is well charged. Otherwise, get service.

It pops up when you push the button to take a picture if the flash setting requires a flash. Once up, it stays up until manually pressed down.

Don't know exactly; but, my flash stopped working and the photo repair shop (warranty) downloaded a software update and that fixed my problem of the flash not firing. It worked perfectly previous to whatever went haywire. RD

In Auto setting the flash will pop up when the subject is dark. Also, at the top of the OK button is the FLASH selector that will let you choose the type of flash you need.

yes i have the same problem, one time i just replaced new batteries and took 2-3 pics and then set it for a flash pic and the camera went down saying "change the bateteries"Not sure if this piece has a problem or if there is some issue with all S2s

A lot of cameras have been returned because the pop up flash is broken. I vote for built in flashes and viewfinders to comliment the LCD screen.

First remove lens and set to red F32 and lock and reinstall. If that does not solve the problem. Consider trying this website. If this does not help let me know.http://photographylife.com/how-to-fix-blinking-err-error-on-new-nikon-dslr-cameras

I'm getting error99 due to the flash. If I put it into no flash mode the camera operates fine, just the pix are crap.

Nice try. I did just that but it didn't work. I don't know if the type of SD card matters and I didn't investigate further. The camera stuck with a flashing "for", supposedly means "formatting". Otherwise this adapter works just fine with one card. 16GB is more than enough for my D700 anyway. Good luck.

Try doing a full format of the card. I have used this card on both Canon and Nikon, several models and never had an issue. Might want to contact Nikon if a full format of the card does not work. There is no firmware on the card that should need to be updated.

Hi, well, the cameras i use are D3000 and D7100 and the flash works fine with both.

You need to turn the small black ring upwards or anti-clockwise at the bottom of the adapter where u fix it to your camera to release the pin which gets attached to the flash. Don't try to take out by force . You can damage the adapter

Everything I'm reading could be applied to my S5 Nikon coolpix; blurs at low light w/o flash. if it's a sensor problem, then they are all using the same sensor.

I have not used flash a lot, encountered this very problem recently. Blueberry field answer is what I will try next time problem arises. Smart mode gives control to the camera that can't be changed without changing mode choice.

Can you provide more details? What is your camera? Did you try mounting a flash directly or wireless trigger?

First, you have to press the flash release button to open the flash(refer to the manual for location{ looking at the back of the camera, it's to the left of the flash cover, on the top of the camera} ). You also have to set the flash mode; always, automatic,etc.Several times I've been frustrated only to find out that the flash wasn't open and ready.Good luck.

Not sure. First make sure your flash has the proper connection for the adapter of the battery pack.

Hmm...I have the same problem with my Olympus. Would the "sports mode" make any difference? Can flash be used in that mode? --Zach Kaplan

By default the flash is automatic. It might be helpful, as the others say, to go to the 'thunder' sign on the Function's Circle on the back of the camera to set it and turn it on. If the flash doesn't work turned on, then it is a manufacturing problem and you should contact the seller and/or Cannon.

I'm really sorry I can't help you, I bought this flash as a gift for a friend. I would browse through the Nikon forums if I were you....good luck!
