Sony Xperia L HDR mode and Superior mode

Last days i was going serious to buy Xperia L but when i tryed the camera there is no Superior mode like on reviews on the YouTube and when i turn on HDR the led flash turns off, on the videos again on the YouTube the flash stays on, which brings that the photos r taken in the dark r impossible to see, they r too dark. I have ordered another one and with the second Xperia L the same thing happens again. Im really confused because i want to buy this phone and the main reason is camera which is not working like i have seen on the reviews...what is going on with that?

The HDR mode is a digital photography technique whereby multiple exposures of the same scene, what is the interest of the led flash ? this mode are useful in dark room, not in a completely dark room or outside with a beautiful sun. With HDR mode, you can keep pictures in museum without flash, and the quality is better !

is an example.

See you.

these sony guys are making a fool of us they are selling two models c2105 which has superior auto and flash in hdr and another c2104 which does not support this feature..................and sadly in India we get only xperia L c2104.........:( this is pure bias

hmm, interesting.

I thought Sony wanted us to feel the best camera expertise in a phone?

It's weird that Sony doesn't include Superior Mode and stuff like Burst Mode or Macro.

There's no differences in features between C2104 and C2105. It's just different cellular basebands. HDR and flash don't go together. HDR takes three shots rapidly and merge them. So you cannot use flash in HDR mode, no matter its Xperia Z, Galaxy S4 etc.
