Before the days of Toyota

Think I will have to go back to this wagon with nice fresh batteries. I am finding it hard to know when to use flash or not. Note to csharp_gal: I use Auto (well, the dial is turned to P) and I don't understand anything further, LOL! I did discover one nasty thing today, though - that if I use flash and there is very fine snow falling, the flash picks up those flecks and my photo is covered in most unpleasant little bright dots. Fortunately, not all my photos today suffered this way. I never know when to use flash, but I think, on the whole, my snow photos come out better when I use it - as long as there is no snow falling.
