My camera is a fairly low-end digital camera, but it still has a lot of features I don't know how to use. This is clear from the following photos:
With flash. Somewhat charmless, although it highlights the fact that his eyes are gold instead of the standard green. I always thought that was interesting.
Taken without flash. It's not dark in here, it just isn't particularly lit. He looks winsome in this photo, but it's much too dark.
I'm sure there are ways to get other results than these from this camera, but I don't know how.
