Flash won't work in Canon A720IS camera




By ladyamalthea on May 13, 2009

" "
I have a Canon A720IS and whenever I try to use the flash, nothing happens. The flash symbol flashes and the red light blinks, but the actual flash light does not go off. I tried taking the batteries out and resetting the camera as I was advised to do, but it only fixed it for a couple pictures worth. I have also tried changing the batteries to fresh batteries, but it has not fixed it at all.

Same Problem

-   All of a sudden the flash doesn't work on  my camera!  So it will only take non-flash photos.  Grrrr.  Any ideas?-   brookielamb

I was having the same problem and changing to Alkaline batteries seems to have solved the problem. I hope this helps!
