Basically, the characteristics I think are important a adjustable

other features to suggest?

No cameras, PnS or even DSLR has adjustable flash intensity. They are all
automatic.

Where on earth do you get this? Some of the Canon Powershots, on manual
mode, have 3 levels of output.


I susect that this is just a miscommunication. He is correct that you
cannot set the flash output. You can only adjust it from its automatic
setting. External flash units actually let you set the power level.


Wrong.


Let's see you provide an actual example.

Go get some real cameras one day and learn what they can do, instead
of regurgitating troll's nonsense.


I have several real cameras, idiot. None allow setting the flash
power level.

Oh wait, you ARE the originator of that
nonsense.


You _are_ an idiot.
