PLZ> don't forget to rate my suggestion.

You flash is in ' Flash forced OFF ' position.Press on the flash control button repeatedly until one of the four modes are selected.

1.Flash Auto - Flashes when there is insufficient light or backlight ( Default Setting )

2.Flash forced on

3.Slow synchro - The shutter speed is slow in a dark place to clearly shoot the background that is out of flash light.

4.Flash forced off - ( Your current mode ).The flash automatically pops up and strobes when using the flash.Close the flash by hand after use.

In Intelligent Auto mode that's true, you only have Auto or Off. If you want more options you should switch to Program mode. There you can select Auto, On, Slow sync, and Off.

Hi,

Check if the Flash unit in the Camera is popping up automatically.
Check if the Flash is set to Flash Forced Off. If it is set to Off, then set it to Forced On.
Please check if the Camera is not set to the following settings:
REC MODE is set to Burst or Exposure bracket mode.
Scene Selections modes like:
ISO High Sensitivity mode.
Advanced Sports Shooting mode.
Twilight mode.
Fireworks mode.
Set the flash to Flash Forced On when the mode dial is set to M or when Landscape mode, Beach mode or Snow mode is selected in Scene Selection mode.

This should resolve the issue.

Hi,

The Flash mode in the Camera can be changed by pressing the Right Arrow button (>) continuously which will change the settings from Flash Forced ON, Slow Synchro and Flash Forced OFF.

Flash Level can also be adjusted in the Camera by selecting the Flash Level option from the Shooting Menu of the Camera.

Thanks,

change it to single picture mode, if cammera is in burst mode the falsh is forced off.

Flash adjustement is also in camera menu and 3 kind of flash setting can be set, auto-flash, forced-flash and slow-flash.
Have nice time.

You must have an E:61 or E:91 error. You will need to send it back to Sony but, that is what warranties are all about. I am sure it will be fixed quickly and for free!!

No, those are 'M' series batterys and the F55 and F505 take 'S' series batterys.
