  Useful Information:

  The flash is one of the most hated/loved things in the world of photography. Hated because it requires mathematical calculations that are not always possible to do quickly "in the field", loved because it allows you to photograph even when the human eye cannot even distinguish the simple shapes of an object. However, it is also one of the simplest tools to use, at least if you don't turn to very sophisticated (and expensive) models: all of them have at least one exposure automation, and some are even able to communicate with the camera and emit the right light without the need for other manual interventions by the photographer.
