Why does the flash go off when I turn my digital camera on?

Whenever I turn my digital camera on, the flash goes off. This started happening not long after I purchased the camera.

Its more annoying then anything else, but I’m wondering why?

Answer #1

Hmm possible that the camera is testing out the lighting in the room if you have it on an automatic setting.

If the pictures come out ok, then don’t worry about it!

Answer #2

There’s a four way rocker switch on the back of the camera. If you press up (lightning symbol) it will cycle through the flash modes - including off!
