Hi Ed,

I can't comment on the capabilities of the camera u/w since I don't
know your expectations.

I can however confirm that the internal flash will actually do less
than squat for you u/w, even in near-perfect conditions. These things
are not powerful enough in almost all conditions and will give you
clouds of backscatter (and red eye) because they're way too close to
the lens.

Cheers,

Christian
