does any1 with the k850i experience this problem..... The flash becomes disabled when you select bestpic to take pics.

There is one main reason why the flash does not work on best pic. The capacitor that powers the flash ca not recharge quick enough to keep up with the speed that it takes the multiple picturs. I havent seen any normal camera that can use the flash when using a burst mode.

AMEN to that! its not a bug!

its a feature! if the flash is enabled... it would be useless in anyway possible..

the logic of BestPic™ is that it takes several pix while youre pressing the shutter, and another batch upon clicking the shutter....

at that speed?! how many times would you think a xenon flash could fire?!
the fastest flash recycle i know on digital cameras is around 2 - 2.2secs

so i guess theres no way to force flash on BestPic especially on camphones.
digicams cant do that either... so hell no can camphones...

ciao!

I've seen Cybershot that can fire flash in burst mode, I guess they have bigger capacitors and can distribute energy to Xenon flash very quickly, but mobile phones cameras it's another history .....

you sure about this?! Cybershot?

may this be just flash attachments? Like speed flash? and not the digital camera itself...

I own K800i.
Xenon Flash is indeed disable in BestPic™ feature.
Same thing goes with K810i.
It's not a bug/problem....

BestPic means:
4 shots before shutter pressed,
1 shot when shutter pressed.
and 4 extra shots after shutter pressed.
Total = 9

lets think.
is it possible to use xenon flash on the 1st 4 images?
no it doesn't. because 4 shots are taken before shutter pressed.

hence. we all know why it's impossible to use flash for BestPic.
