Hi All,

What does it mean when Opanda IExif reports:


  1. "Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode"
  2. "Flash fired, compulsory flash mode"
Opanda IExif is obviously reporting that a flash did fire, but what is the difference between the two Opanda IExif values? Are there other values regarding Flash which Opanda IExif reports?

Thanks,
~Dom

I get the first one when my flash has not recharged and did not fire even though I wanted it to.

I get the first one every time the flash is not fired. Even if the flash is not attached.
