Problems with the flash in default Camera app

Since I normally shoot without, I wouldn’t have noticed there’s something about the flash.
I have tested my FP3 and observed the following:

  • video
    -flash not selectable and stays turned off
  • photo normal and pro / red eye reduction deactivated
    -flash is controllable (on/off/auto) an works as designed
  • photo normal and pro / red eye reduction activated
    - flash led stays turned off despite selected on and auto mode
    - red eye reduction - flash led stays turned off

To summarise:
Flash works in normal and pro photo mode as expected, if red eye reduction is deactivated and doesn’t work at all in both modes, if red eye reduction is activated.
