Take a Photo Booth picture without the flash
Authored by: ottonomy on Wed, Nov 28 2007 at 12:48AM PST

I have found the flash to make Photo Booth almost unusable. It's so strange that the default behavior would be to snap a picture that looks nothing like what you've just previewed in natural light and decided to keep. Flash should be reserved for when the user takes a picture without it and decides that the ambient light wasn't sufficient. Anyway, I'm greatly relieved to find a way to disable the flash, even if it requires me to keep a finger on the keyboard.
