How to Disable Flash or Countdown in Photo Booth

January 22nd, 2009 - Mac OS X, Tips & Tricks

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.

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)
