Camera bug after Portico update

[BenGutt]

"Flash auto" ="Flash off" seems like making perfect sense to you?

No, and thats the point people are tyring to get you to understand.
Flash auto = Flash auto and nothing else.

It was a bug to have the flash go off in night mode. If you have access to some other mobile phone you can check night mode on it. For instance, on a Nokia N8 selecting night mode turns flash off and night portrait mode puts flash on with red eye reduction (makes sense as you'd be taking pictures of people).
With the 920 the flash modes are controlled independently from the scene modes, i.e. the flash mode doesn't change when selecting different scene modes. So if you want to use flash in night mode you will need to manually turn it on yourself. Setting it to auto will not activate the flash in night mode because the software won't allow it. In other words, it automatically disables the flash in night mode which is 100% correct.
