Well Noodle is Amel, so he has Red eyes, i never heard anything about the using the Flash with Red eyes, doesnt seem to bother him tho.. i dont hold it right infront of him mind, i just zoom in from a good enough distance for it not to bother him, he seems to likegetting his Photo taken tho lol. When he sees me holding the Camera he seems to stop whatever hes doing LOL

I think most morphs will be fine with it. I wouldn't use a flash too close to red eyed morphs though.

I've heard that red-eyes are more sensitive to the light..
It's best to hold a rizla-paper over the flash if you were going for a very close shot, for protection..

I don't have the best camera for dark shots, so I prefer the natural light every time ^^
