Does this camera create a visible flash ?

No it sometime's does a group of red lights but they do not "flash" just turn on then off. I thought this would happen everytime but after reviewing the pictures with me waving my hands around and looking at the camera obviously it did not go off everytime but was taking pictures, I do have a light on near me, just a 40watt bulb in a hanger by the coop and not sure if this was enough for it not to need it but even with that light it was pretty dark outside.

Yes, it does... It is NOT a flash, which is why I bought it for my wife. :-/

Not unless you are doing some short, stroposcopic videos. This flash only puts out measured bursts of light, not a steady stream suitable for video use.

Yes, there is a built in flash system and you have an optional external flash. Even my photos taken in candlelight turned out excellent without any flash at all.

Yes it does. It has a pop up flash activated by a button on the side of the camera.

No, but the popup flash does a great job. sometimes when shooting objects I add a spot light from the side.

No daylight flash, only IR, so you see nothing. The shutter is extremely quiet. I've walked around in front of the activated camera many times and can't hear anything. The biggest issue is hiding it, so humans don't spot it.

It's only visible to another IR camera. I have 2 of these and if I point them at each other and something triggers them the flash is visible to the other one. There is a dull red light on them that is visible. I would suggest locking them with a cable or in a box.

You can see the flash at the top of camera. It is a 16 Megapixel Digital camera.

It does. I think that is what makes the entire picture look hazy. When I tried it outside...no need for the flash...it didn't haze as bad, but it still left the circular obstruction/shadow at the bottom, no matter how straight I positioned the camera.

Dawn, Hello there. I have only had my cameras out for a few weeks and looked at the cards on my computer once. I cannot say I have seen the flash but I would think it does because of a few pic's I could see the deer very brightly lite. I can only guess for now that YES it does. You probably do not want the theif to see it going off but there are different modes you can set it at too. Mine are too far away from here for me to go get them and check them. Sorry but thats the best info I could give. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT THUG !! Barry

There is no flash. The LED Infrareds will glow red at night for a brief second when it takes a picture, but that is all.

Yes, it has flash for photos and a constant light for night videos, but you have to tell it to use the light when you turn it on. It's a quick and easy setting.

It does with a night photograph I took with the flash. I haven't tried another photo at night with flash.

No it does not. The camera flash only functions for the various camera modes. It cannot be used as a flash light. Brilliant camera nonetheless.

Yes. You go to Menu>Camera settings>2>Flash mode. Select "fill flash" from the menu and the flash will go off, regardless of the light levels. Naturally, the flash needs to be opened/up for this to work.
