How many of stops of light do you lose when it is on the flash?

I did a quick test using my Canon 430exII on a white wall. IMHO, lost light is about 2/3 - 1 stop of light, which is easy to correct. More importantly, the historgram had a better curve with the softbox.

Brook, There are no user selectable Flash Modes. These alternate 2 x 2. They flash 2 times each then they all flash 2 times. Then the cycle starts over.Hope this helps.

Dawn, Hello there. I have only had my cameras out for a few weeks and looked at the cards on my computer once. I cannot say I have seen the flash but I would think it does because of a few pic's I could see the deer very brightly lite. I can only guess for now that YES it does. You probably do not want the theif to see it going off but there are different modes you can set it at too. Mine are too far away from here for me to go get them and check them. Sorry but thats the best info I could give. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT THUG !! Barry

When using your flash it will come out green. You will have a greenish shadow in the bottom of every picture whether you use flash or not

So far I have not had a problem with the flash. However, most of the photos I have taken have been landscapes with good lighting so the flash hasn't been used all that much. Sorry I haven't anymore info and good luck.

About 4pounds. Be aware the flash works great but the camera itself is somewhat disappointing. Put flash on a canon and very pleased

Depends on how much you're using the flash. Can get a couple hundred photos w no flash, maybe about 100 with a flash...about an evenings worth of show photos with one battery fully charged, but I always bring a spare.

it depends on the condition of the batteries (4 or 5) and the intensity of the previous flashfrom almost immediate, to 7 or more seconds

There is nothing more I know to add to Syd's answer . I have not taken very many shots with the flash but Syd's reply is correct as far as I can tell .

don't use flash if I can help it, I like available light when I can. Olympus lights are a little high.

well, it is limited, mainly in that you can't bounce it and can't adjust flash exposure in auto mode. plus, the types of flash are limited at least in the automatic and scene modes. that said, in most of the other modes (P,A,S,M) you can adjust the flash exposure compensation, and i find that setting it down a notch or two usually helps to avoid blowing out my subject.

Technically, it makes them flash from full powet to about 20% power. The effect is your light flashing in and off but legally it can't go completely off, hence the 20%.

I don't have the answer to that but the flash failed the 2nd time I turned it on and I returned it. I do not recommend buying it.

There is only one flash mode. 2 of the 4 lights are (A) the other 2 of the 4 are (B). They alternate flash and flash all together. A A A A B B B B A A A A B B B B A+B A+B A+B A+B then it starts over

I took some sample pics in the house at night with just lights on. They looked OK without the flash. I find with indoor pics I usually don't like the flash because it seems to wash out the photo.

I would use 400. It's a little more "grainy" looking in prints but you won't really need your flash in daylight.
