Practical Use of Camera Flash - 5 Tips to Prevent Overexposure | Photography Enthusiast

In indoor or dimly lit settings, photographers often use flash to provide fill-in lighting for the main subject. However, many people have found that images taken with flash are often less than satisfactory. The usual cause is "blown-out" overexposure, a problem that is especially severe with compact digital cameras. As a result, many people tend to complain: "Don't use the flash," only to end up with pictures that turn out "blurry, dark, and hazy." In fact, as long as it's used appropriately, the built-in camera flash can yield many satisfying results for photographers.
