Has anyone had problems with the phone turning off when taking a picture with flash on?

I haven't had any issues with my battery. It sounds like your issue is a physical issue with the phone or the phone's OS has some corruption of some sort.

No, but had the battery for about a month And the battery just died wouldn't take a charge. I went out and bought a anker battery, it works great

Yes! I also have that problem. But, not as a result of the battery. I haven't purchased one.

I bought it for my mother for Christmas and when I asked her this question she said that she hasn't had any problems with it so far but then again she can't really remember if or when she used the flash on the camera. Lately she used the camera without the flash. But over all she hasn't had any problems with it.

YES! I have that problem with my Samsung Galaxy SII. Did you find a solution?

No, it doesn't. I've had no trouble taking photos with or without the flash.

I haven't used mine with flash but it has been erratic w/o a flash. I had to go back through the start up procedures and reset the frequency twice. Seems to be ok now. Oh and I replaced all of the batteries just to be sure.

Yes, I have been very impressed with the low light pictures. The only complaint I have is you can't force the flash on in auto if you want some fill in light. However, you can force the flash on in other modes.

This is a silly question but is it tightly on the camera? I've had that happen twice. The first time it was loose. The second time it was on "no flash"

Yes it does freeze up while using the flash. If you turn it off it will not freeze. FYI you have to pull the battery out to reset the phone not happy with that. This true for both noot batteries. If I install the oem battery no problems.

I have not. I have been very please with my camera. About once a month I make sure the unit is plugged in securely though.

hey sarah! when you turn the camera on, press the "lightning bolt" icon 1 time. you can turn flash back on by pressing it again. the camera upon turning off, will default back to flash again. hope this helps!

Ours finally broke down and would shut down on its own. But it always took pictures. Try a new card. That camera is pretty old now, there are newer solutions --- even the iPhones now take way better video and photos.

Haven't had that problem. The manual just says turn the camera off and check the connection. I'd worry that the lens electronics were damaged.

Yes. Pressing a button will pop up the flash and enable it for pictures. To disable, physically close the flash. In any camera mode, including full auto mode, there are settings to have the flash always on, or auto.

I've never had that problem although I do know that you really need to hold the button down until you hear the shutter click almost an old-fashioned film camera or the picture won't take. Hope you find a solution to your problem!

Yeah, I found leaving the battery out for 30 minutes helped as the problem didn't comeback until I unplugged it from recharging it. Sucks, I really like the camera.

Yes I am having issues with it. When you take the picture part of the image comes out dark because part of the flash and camera is covered by the case. I bought another case hoping it was defeated but I'm having the same issue and the one they send me has a large slashed on the side where the logo is located

I have a 60D, and if I have it as a shutter release, I just slave the flash as well, and it goes off.

You might be trying to use the flash too fast after using it the first or second time. It takes time for the battery powere to build up for each flash. There is definitely a lag time in between using the flash. Don't try to use the flash again with out waiting 15 seconds or so. When you push the shutter button halfway to let the camera focus before taking the picture you should be able to tell if enough battery power has built up for the next flash. I doubt your camera is defective. IOt is just matter of understandimg how it works & using it correctly.

Haven't noticed that problem specifically, however, the shutter lag is horrendous on either alkaline or lithium and might be related as I leave the setting at auto flash most of the time.
