Hi DEBBIE MCMAHILL, if the light you are pertaining is the flash or the AF illuminator, this can be set only on shooting still images and not for video recording. -Ely

It is a tiny light that when turned on is red...then changes to blue to advise recording started.When turned off, no light.

Hold the camera up as if to take a pic and there is a Circle with FUNC.SET inside it to the right of the screen. On the far right of that Circle is a lightning bolt like image. Click this and you will get a screen message to turn the flash on or off. The camera has to be on to do this.

There is a flash on the cameras. Make sure you tell your guests to use it because the pictures will come out dark and grainy if they don't.

Yes, just press the little ring on the right side and keep pressing it until it shows the lightning bolt with a ghost busters no sign over it. You can also turn it on for all shots...like when you are taking a picture of someone with a light or window behind them. Then there is also the automatic setting, which you can use most of the time. I like to use mine at teen dances at the school I work at. I go into the middle of a bunch of dancing kids in the very dim light, then hold my camera above their heads and press the shot button half way down. This makes the red light come on, and they all look up, so I take a GREAT picture!

The flash is a low red glow. Anybody or anything can see it. I don't know if you can cut it off or not..

There isn't a flash. It works better in the day time. The battery doesnt last long. But my kids love using it to make their short films

Easy. Pick up the camera. Power on. On the back of the camera on the large outside circle there are 4 markings. The one on the right controls the flash. If you press it you will see that there are 4 options. Just keep clicking that right side of the outer circle until you get the setting that you prefer. Enjoy that little jewel. BKW

I corrected the problem on my camera. To do this, I went to MENU, selected SETUP (third menu on left), then went to page 2. Under LCD MODE, press the right MENU Toggle button. It is probably set to OFF. Set it on the next item down which is a sqare with an A and a star in it. That sets the LCD to the Auto light mode. That took care of my problem. Now when I take a flash it doesn't get dark. In looking at the photos on my computer, the photos looked ok. They weren't dark. It is just a LCD problem. That took care of it for me. Try that one time.

There are two ways to turn on....one way makes it motion lighting, the second way is to keep it on until you turn it back off. Hope this helps you.

The flash only works if there is not enough light - automatic. However, there is a menu in the camera, and I see Lamp Setting which is on when you get the camera, but you can turn it off.

Take the real light piece of paper out, make sure it is straight and even with carbon side down. put your flash like a fax, and hit copy, it has been quite a while since i used mine, but utube has some good videos

Hi Linda, do you see the only Button it has on top?Press On/off key for two seconds to start the device. the camara will go into standby mode, the green LED light will go on.then in the standby mode, press the on/off button for three seconds, the green LED flashes three times before recording begins, and that's it you all set, hope this help you? Happy Holly Days!

After scanning about a dozen slides mine would not light up at all.the screen was just black. I e mailed the manufacturer and they told me several things to do, which I had already tried and didn't work...then they told me it was probably defective and to return it to where I bought it. I contacted Amazon, they were great! Sent me the return label and immediately sent me another one! The second one worked like a charm and I converted all 1000 slides that I had from years ago!! Hope this helps!! It was so simple to use..

well, im shooting in large fine format, and i try to use iso accordingly, but whats confusing is that i get both the flash sign (like its recharching as you mention) but i also see the buffer light for the memory on blinking so im not sure if its trying to do both at the same time and can't consult the manual(totally clueless) cause it was ripped up the same day i got it by my friends dog..(damn chihuahuas) so never got a chance to do so...

Thanks very much for the info., Les. I actually returned my camera when even Panasonic tech support couldn't fix the problem, but I later learned it was not a defective camera. I'll be buying it again in the near future as I think it's a great camera, and I'll be saving your message in an attempt to figure it all out. Also, too bad there's no flash button on the camera and that you have to go to the menu to fiddle with it. That's weird! (and too bad it doesn't pop up automatically, like my Sony) THANKS AGAIN!
