there isn't a way to dim the camera flash, the only option is to go low tech, using a coffee filter works, not only on smartphones but on regular DSLR cameras gives a better result. there might be an app on the market to dim the flash.

Please check for the little plastic film cover that comes attached to the lens on purchase. This is designed just to keep it safe in the box but then be removed before use.

I got the same problem. After removing the polythene cover, my camera rocks!

To remove:

1. open the bach cover.

2. you can find a thin polythene sheet sticked on camera lense(it covers the flash partially).

3. remove the polythene sheet with nails(don't scratch lens)

4. you r ready to rock!!
