how do I force flash on canon eos rebel t3?

Hi jim1!

If you need the flash to fire all of the time, regardless of what the camera may determine is necessary, switch the MODE DIAL to the P mode, then press the FLASH button to raise the flash.  If the flash is raised, it should fire each time you press the shutter button.

Hello Forum;

That flash button is hard to find on my Canon EOS Rebel T3. I thought it was on the back but it's on the top.

Question: Is there any way I can force the flash on in the CA setting?

Thank you in advance.

Nope. The Camera is totally in control. That is why you need to switch to "P".

Thanks.
