Use The Flash On A Disposable Camera

Today, most disposable cameras come with a built-in flash. The flash allows you to use the camera in multiple lighting conditions, both indoors and out. It makes the disposable camera much more versatile than a camera without a flash.


Instructions


Enhance Your Photography with a Camera Flash


1. Pay attention to lighting. The most common places to use the flash are indoors or outdoors on a cloudy day. Don't use the flash in bright conditions, such as outside on a sunny day.


2. Snap a picture when you are 3 to 10 feet away from your subject. Cameras probably won't take clear pictures if you are closer than 3 feet. If you need to illuminate your subject, the flash will only light up the area about 10 to 15 feet in front of you.


3. Use your disposable camera flash as fill-in lighting, not as a light source itself.


4. Charge the flash when you want to use it. For a camera without an automatic flash, you will need to push a button to turn on the flash. If you push the button accidentally, wait a few seconds until the flash discharges again.


5. Switch the flash to "on" when you are ready to use it. Some cameras have a switch to turn the flash on and off, instead of an automatic flash or a button. With this type of flash, simply turn it on and wait for the "ready" signal to appear before you take your snapshot.


6. Refrain from using the flash unless you really need it. Many shots are ruined when people use flash unnecessarily, because it can make the subjects look washed out.


7. Experiment with your photos. Take test shots, and shoot lots of pictures of different subjects in varied lighting. Study them afterwards. You'll learn a lot more by experimenting than if you never alter your routine.
