I disagree. A camera can be pretty unobtrusive, if done right, but a 
flash going off is obvious to *everybody.* Saying that the flash is 
no more unacceptable than the camera is kind of like saying "well, my 
shoes aren't period, so I may as well wear a Led Zeppelin T-shirt 
instead of a tunic."

Personally, I don't like flash photography at events, and would 
rather it didn't happen.
