conditions.
The flash is activated every time regardless of the recording conditions.

slow the shutter speed when the flash is activated so that the dark
background landscape will become bright. Simultaneously it reduces the
red-eye phenomenon.

Using a slower speed can cause motion blur. Using a tripod can
enhance your photos.
