Mac OS X, Tips & Tricks - January 22nd, 2009 - 10 Comments
Photo Booth is a really fun app that comes with all macs that have a built in iSight camera. Here’s a couple tips that make using Photo Booth on your mac even more enjoyable; the ability to disable the ‘white screen’ flash and the ability to disable the 3 second countdown. Try them out yourself:
Disable Flash in Photo Booth
Disabling flash in PhotoBooth is really easy all you have to do is hold the Shift key while you click to take a picture and the screen will not flash white.
Disable Countdown in Photo Booth
Disabling the picture count down in PhotoBooth is just a matter of holding down the Option key while you click to take a picture, your photo will take immediately.
You can combine the keystrokes by holding down Option-Shift and you’ll immediately take a picture without the flash.

Nice one! That’s really helpful! THANKS
it works when i hold the option key but the shift does not do it i tried both shift key is there anything else i can press to disable the flash ;-(
why is it not working ;-( can some body please help me??
You have to press & hold the Command+Shift keys BEFORE you click on the snap photo button, to disable the screen flash,
and add Option key to the combination to disable the countdown.
I’m sorry. Just the Shift key would do (w/o the Command key)
I was wondering if anyone knows of a hotkey on the keyboard that allows you to switch between video record and picture taking? I want to be able to run photobooth with out a mouse.
Please let me know.
Thanks
