Hey!  Whaddya know!  I just looked at the menus!

I hate when I have to do that.  First - Chuck, I checked and my min/max
settings are similar to yours.  However, I found that there's actually a
"Fill Flash" option for AP shooting, which is how I normally shoot.  I'm
going to experiement around the house this evening and see how the
different choices work.

Imagine that.  Actually RTFM and digging through the menus.  What will
happen next?
