According to manuals on this model of camera, I am supposed to have four flash options: auto, on, off, long shutter. But when I click the flash button on camera I only have two options: auto flash or flash off. This makes it so that I can't record with the flash on which is really crucial to what I'm using it for! Does anyone know if it's just the model I have or if there is another place I can find the flash settings? Thank you

Dried it out over a period of 2 weeks. Camera seems to function okay except that the part that measures and adjusts for light is bad. LCD gives perfectly normal light presentation but when the picture is taken, the light overwhelms the photo and the result is not usable - close to a white page. Which part do I need to replace and where can I buy it?
