moos blues said:yes flash does spoil the look to ur pics and well sadly the artifacts as well...
like old documents, paintings, and so on...... even artifacts, its like when u leave stuff in the sun, things fade, stuff wears...
Well, then i suggest you get a tripod, cheap one will do, or just get a video cam ahhaha... trythe tripod, even borrow one, it may be cumbersome, but at least you be saving urself from a scolding.. =)
aiya dont worry lah, and if u like the stuff in there to take pics of it, you might just like em enuff NOT to use your flash.

i tried taking photos without flash, but the pics turn out blur, coz the museum is dimly lit (maybe they want to save electricity?)
phool said:Flash is not allowed partly because it damages the exhibits. Hope you will be more responsible when you visit a museum next time.
markteo said:but i'm sure not ALL artifacts would be affected by lighting. Maybe fabrics, paintings, colored porcelain would be affected coz they have colored pigments, but bronze n stone objects are light resistance.....
