I was on One shot at the time.

In this case it was a rather low light shot of my dog laying on a sofa. 
Indoors with lamp lighting. I don't think he was moving at the time. I 
think I tried the flash at the time and it did the strobe thing and 
couldn't make up its mind.

He is a rather brown dog with a dark face. I think he has rather good 
contrast including the sofa.
