I can't find any literature anywhere in any books online on this.
>when I use the pop up flash, it "strobes" and fires like 20 preliminary flashes before actually "flashing" for a picture.
>I want it to stop this
>I want it to do fucking ONE flash, JUST for the picture.
>so that I can actually take a goddamn photo the moment I press the shutter fully, not have to wait a full second until the camera decides it's done with it's stupid fucking focus or metering bullsHit
What setting do I change? What mode do I have to shoot in?
It "strobes" to find focus before you take the picture. You can't turn this off, and usually you can prevent it from happening by having the shot in focus before hitting the flash button on the camera.
Another way, which many photographers use, is to not use the pop up flash at all.
I really like the pop up flash
It indicates to me the photographer has no fucking clue
