How to disable flash on Nikon D70?

[smp]

I'm in a bit of a jam and I don't know how to turn off the flash .. problem is, I don't have time to pour over tech docs and it's not obvious in the menus or anywhere else (as it is on most cameras)...

anyone care to shed some light?
I want auto, but no flash ..
or macro, but no flash..

thanks!

With the D-50 hold the flash button and turn the commander knob until you see it disabled on the top LCD; I’d assume it would be the same on the D-70. Although try shooting in the A or M mode when doing macro.

I havnt figured out how to turn it off in macro mode either. I now use mostly A mode anyway and wouldnt go back to macro mode. Once you start tweaking settings you never go back jack!

The only mode the flash is automatically used is in "P" mode.

That is to say in S, A and/or M if you don't have the flash popped up, it won't and therefore won't fire.

It must be the 70s model with the vari-program modes. The post above summed it up.
