I just tried my new flash but I´m a bit disappointed. The flash doesn´t go off (flash) that often I want it to go off. It must be really dark to get the flash working. I hope SE wil fix this in next firmware release. At least add an option where I can force the flash to go off. Now the only tow options are Off or Automatic. Are there more people around here having the same problem/thoughts?

Another thing is that in the manual it is mentioned something about redeye reduction depending on modell of phone being used. The K750i is supposed to be their camera phone and I took for granted that this function should be in my K750i but it wasn't or am I wrong?

Hmm red eye reduction is done by distance between k750i camera and mxe-60, if i'm not wrong. And You are not the only one dissapointed, that You can't force flash to go on.

So I think it's great, except that it shines the LED on the phone before taking using the flash to take the picture. This isn't good. For example, I like to take pictures of my girlfriend and I at night but when the light comes on I'm blinded and can't see us in the little mirror for self pictures, and then the flash goes off when you actually take the picture. Pretty annoying.

Unless there's a setting somewhere to turn the LED off completely, it's not that useful, at least for taking pictures of people that might try and look at the camera.

thats the red eye reduction technique its employing.

a pre-flash light that shrinks your retinas so less light bounces off the back of your eyes and back out...

The built in LED also assists with the AutoFocus which wouldn't work without it in dark environment. I really like mine but I would also like to have control over when it comes on. Sometimes the phone cranks up the ISO instead of strobing the subject and that generates lots of noise. I'd really like to have a bit more control over the camera (ISO, shutter speed and MAYBE even focus distance).

Does this problem happen to you guys?

MOST of the time, when I use the MXE-60 connected to the phone, the first shot turns out as if the flash hadn't been used even though it went off (I'm thinking that the flash and phone don't synch; could be that the flash lighted a moment earlier when the camera takes the shot, or the other way around). But for subsequent shots, it works fine.

Sometimes it's also disappointing that the auto mode of the flash isn't that accurate. More often than not it's not that strong, which makes my pictures also somewhat dim/dark.

I'm using W800 R1AA008.
