Smaller Canons all seem to have slow flashes.

Since I *HATE* flash, it's never bothered me.

Basically, the flash is useless with an ISO of less than 400. Of course,
that's where I'd want to use it.

On the bright side, for pics that won't get printed large, the ISO 3200 mode
seems to give better results than popping up the flash with a slower ISO...

Take Care,
