PowerShot A3300 IS How to get flash on each photo

[anniestuber]

Hello! I have the PowerShot A3300 IS and I am wondering if there is any way to ensure the flash goes off. It seems to only have two flash setting - automatic and off. However when I turn on automatic sometimes when it's dark the flash doesn't go off. Let me know if anyone has run into this problem and any tips. Thanks!

Hi anniestuber!  Thanks for letting us know what Canon product you've got. The PowerShot A3300 IS camera is an older model which we have retired. While that means that Canon USA no longer offers direct support for it, your friends here in the Canon Community are welcome to offer suggestions!

You can also speak with a Canon Upgrade Program specialist to help you find a modern replacement that would meet your current needs at a discount. You can reach them weekdays and Saturdays at 1-866-443-8002.

Hope this helps!
